Resumo: The identification of markers which could predict the behaviour of tumors, specially breast malignancies, is important mainly because of the variability of progression of the disease. Some tumour markers and their prognostic power are discussed mainly those that use immunohistochemical method and a specimen fixed in formaldehyde and imbedded in parafine. Hormonal receptors are less subject to doubt and those tomours which are positive for these markers are, generally, smaller, whith a lower histologic and nuclear grade, a better response to hormone therapy and a better prognosis. Other tumour markers present controversies about their efficacy, but many papers link their presence to high histological grade malignancies and a poor prognosis. Different oppinions found in the literature are discussed and it may be concluded that more studies are needed before tumour markers could be used as prognostic factors in breast cancer.

Alguns marcadores tumorais e suas relações com o prognóstico são discutidos, dando-se ênfase àqueles que utilizam, para sua detecção, o método imuno-histoquímico e onde possa ser empregado material fixado em formol e embebido em parafina (material de arquivo). Os receptores hormonais (RH) são os menos polêmicos e os tumores positivos para estes marcadores, geralmente, apresentam menor tamanho, menor grau histológico e nuclear, uma melhor resposta à terapia hormonal e um melhor prognóstico. Para os outros marcadores tumorais aqui apresentados (c-erbB-2, catepsina D, MIB-1, PCNA, p53) existem muitas controvérsias, mas parte da literatura associa sua presença com tumores de alto grau histológico e com um pior prognóstico. As divergências existentes na literatura são discutidas e chega-se a conclusão que mais estudos são necessários antes que os marcadores tumorais possam ser utilizados como fatores prognósticos do câncer de mama.INCA2001-12-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRevisão de literaturaapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/230010.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2001v47n4.2300Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 47 No. 4 (2001): Oct./Nov./Dec.; 377-388Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 47 Núm. 4 (2001): oct./nov./dic.; 377-388Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 47 n. 4 (2001): out./nov./dez.; 377-3882176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/2300/1433Eisenberg, Ana Lúcia AmaralKoifman, Sérgioinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-29T20:40:17Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/2300Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T20:40:17Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false
