c-erbB-2/neu Oncogene and Ki-67 Analysis in the Assessment of Palatal Salivary Gland Neoplasms

To evaluate the role of the Ki-67 proliferation antigen and c-erbB-2/neu oncogene expression in the clinical assessment of salivary gland tumors, we followed up 71 patients with minor salivary tumors of the palate. All benign neoplasms (n= 18) showed low Ki-67 scores (< 12%), whereas 26% (14 of 5...
