A comparison of p53 and <scp>WT</scp>1 immunohistochemical expression patterns in tubo‐ovarian high‐grade serous carcinoma before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy

Abstract

Immunohistochemical expression of p53 (abnormal/mutation-type pattern) and WT1 in HGSC is almost universal and is largely concordant before and after chemotherapy. This finding underscores the reliability of these diagnostic markers in small samples and in surgical samples following neoadjuvant chemotherapy, with very few exceptions. A novel finding was the significant diminution in intensity of WT1 staining following chemotherapy.
