Microvessel density and Ki-67 labelling index in esthesioneuroblastoma: Is there a prognostic role?

Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a malignant neuroectodermal tumor. Hyams grading has an established role in its prognostication. The importance of microvessel density (MVD) and Ki-67 labelling index (Ki-67 LI) is well studied in various tumors but the same remains understated in ENB. Aim of the study was to estimate proliferation index and MVD in ENB and to correlate them with Hyams grade.
