Immunohistochemistry of cytokeratin (CK) 5/6, CD44 and CK20 as prognostic biomarkers of non-muscle-invasive papillary upper tract urothelial carcinoma.

Published in: Histopathology (2018)

We demonstrated that IHC staining for CK5/6, CD44 and CK20 was significantly associated with the clinicopathological characteristics and prognoses of patients with non-muscle-invasive papillary UTUC. The IHC subgroups may be correlated with the molecular characteristics of non-muscle-invasive papillary UTUC.
