Abstract
Ki67 immunostaining was performed on 48 cases of squamous cell carcino ma of the cervix and AgNOR silver staining on 29 cases. There was no c orrelation between the clinical stage of the tumor and the two methods of staining but both methods correlated with histological grade. Ther e was no correlation between the two methods of staining in 17 cases w here they were done on adjacent blocks of tumor tissue. High Ki67 scor e but not high AgNOR count was significantly associated with early rec urrence.
