Resumo: PURPOSE: To quantify the degree of angiogenesis by conventional method (microvessel density, MVD) and computerized method (endothelial area, EA), and to evaluate their relationships with the prognosis of patients operated on for colorectal adenocarcinoma. METHODS: Tumoral angiogenesis was studied by means of an immunohistochemical technique, using CD 34, on 126 patients; to quantify the angiogenesis, MVD (defined as number of microvessels per mm²) and EA measurement (defined as the area occupied by EA in the microscope field). A computerized method, IMAGELab software was utilized to quantify endothelial area. RESULTS: The mean number of microvessels was 128.6 MV/mm² (SD = 44.5) and the mean EA was 4.3% (SD = 2.1). The Pearson method demonstrated a low correlation coefficient between MVD and EA (r = 0.429). No relationship between MVD and EA was observed with regard to relapse-free interval and overall survival. CONCLUSION: The histological analysis of angiogenesis expression in patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma can be performed either by computer-assisted image analysis of endothelial area or by conventional microvessels counting. Both methods did not show any significant relationship between these angiogenesis parameters with relapse-free interval and overall survival.

MÉTODOS: A angiogênese tumoral foi investigada por meio de técnica imuno-histoquímica, utilizando-se CD-34, em 126 doentes; para quantificar a angiogênese, a microdensidade vascular, definida como o número de microvasos por mm² e a medida da área endotelial, definida como a área ocupada pelo endotélio vascular identificada no campo microscópico foram empregadas. Um programa computadorizado, o IMAGELab foi empregado para a quantificação da área endothelial. RESULTADOS: A media do número de microvasos foi de 128,6 MV/mm ² (d esvio padrão de 44,5). O método do coeficiente de Pearson demonstrou uma baixa correlação entre a DMV e a AE (r=0,429). Nenhuma correlação entre a DMV e AE com o intervalo livre de doença e tempo global de sobrevida foi observada. CONCLUSÃO: A análise histológica da expressão angiogênica em doentes com adenocarcinoma colorretal pode ser realizada tanto da forma informatizada, na quantificação da área endotelial, como pela convencional, na contagem dos microvasos. Ambos métodos não demonstraram relação estatisticamente significante entre estes parâmetros de angiogênese e o intervalo livre de doença e a sobrevida global.University Foundation Osvaldo Aranha Department of SurgeryUniversity Center of Volta RedondaUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) Department of PathologyUNIFESP Pathology Post-Graduate ProgramUNIFESP Gastroenterological Surgery DivisionUNIFESP Gastroenterological Surgery Division Post-Graduate ProgramUNIFESP, Department of PathologyUNIFESP, Pathology Post-Graduate ProgramUNIFESP, Gastroenterological Surgery DivisionUNIFESP, Gastroenterological Surgery Division Post-Graduate ProgramSciELOSociedade Brasileira para o Desenvolvimento da Pesquisa em CirurgiaUniversity Foundation Osvaldo Aranha Department of SurgeryUniversity Center of Volta RedondaUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Leme, Marcelo Betim PaesWaitzberg, Angela Flávia Logullo [UNIFESP]Artigiani Neto, Ricardo [UNIFESP]Linhares, Marcelo Moura [UNIFESP]Matos, Delcio [UNIFESP]2015-06-14T13:36:34Z2015-06-14T13:36:34Z2006-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion392-397application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0102-86502006000600007Acta Cirurgica Brasileira.
