Assessment of microvessel density and carbonic anhydrase-9 (CA-9) expression in rectal cancer.
AIM: The mechanism by which neoplasias respond to hypoxia determines their biological behavior and prognosis. Understanding the biology of tumors under hypoxic conditions is crucial for the development of anti-angiogenic therapy. Using the largest cohort of rectal adenocarcinomas to date, this stud...
