摘要
Abstract
Objective To study the overexpression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in early-stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and evaluate their relationship. Methods FDG positron emission tomography (PET) was performed in forty patients with stage I and stage II NPC. The maximum and mean standard uptake values (SUV_(max) and SUV_(mean) ,respectively) were measured in each patient, and the expression of VEGF was measured on paraffin sections using immunohistochemistry. Results The FDG uptake in the patients were 9.45±1.87 (SUV_(max)) and 6.04±1.09 (SUV_(mean)), 8.95±1.91 (SUV_(max)) and 6.04±1.09 (SUV_(mean)) in stage I patients, and 11.55±1.70 (SUV_(max)) and 7.98±1.1 (SUV_(mean)) in stage II patients. The FDG uptake of stage II patients was higher than that of stage I patients. The FDG uptake of non-keratinizing differentiated carcinoma was 9.74±1.82 (SUV_(max)) and 6.82±1.23 (SUV_(mean)) and 10.44±2.16 (SUV_(max)) and 6.68±1.35 (SUV_(mean)) in non-keratinizing undifferentiated carcinoma, showing no significant differences between them (SUV_(max): t=1.230, P>0.05; SUV_(mean): t=0.346, P>0.05). The VEGF-positive cells were 60.80% in the tumor. A correlation between VEGF expression and FDG uptake in he tumor was noted (r=0.460, P=0.03). Conclusion VEGF overexpression is correlated to FDG uptake in patients with early-stage NPC. The SUV value reflects the glucose metabolism of NPC, and also shows the degree of oxygen insufficiency in the tumor tissue.关键词
