The results indicated that In the SCC tissue of the oral mucosa there were 5 cases of ER+ and PR- and 32 cases of both ER+ and PR+. Thirty-seven cases, the summation of the above two items, were considered as receptor(+),therefore the rate of the receptor(+) being 82.22%. ER+ and PR+ were cd related to the sex and age of patients, the neck lymph nodes' metastasizing or not and affected parts of the tumor, while they were related to the differentiation degree of the tumor. The rate of receptor(+) decreased with the decrease of the differentiation degree of the tumor. By X2 test a remarkable difference between grade Ⅰand grade Ⅲ of SCC of the oral mucosa was shown. It is suggested that SCC of the oral mucosa may probobly be hormone dependent tumor. The authors consider that the SCC detection for ER and PR could not only be one of the indices of biologic characteristics for that tumor but also as bases of anti-hormone treatment.展开更多
