Clinicopathological comparison of eccrine poroma and porocarcinoma: Ki-67 index is not a decisive factor
EPC patients were older and their tumours larger. There was no difference in Ki-67 index between EP and EPC groups. In the Cox multivariate analysis only age had a statistically significant effect on survival. According to our findings Ki-67 index might not be a decisive factor in the prognosis of EPC. Further studies to validate our current findings are warranted.
