Abstract:Objective To investigate the serum levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCCAg) in patients with endometrial cancer and their correlation with pathological parameters. Methods Eighty cases of endometrial carcinoma treated in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Huangshan People’s Hospital of Anhui Province (hereinafter referred to as “our hospital”) from January 2017 to March 2021 were selected as the observation group, and 75 healthy women in the outpatient department of our hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. The levels of VEGF and SCCAg were compared between the two groups, and the differences of serum VEGF and SCCAg in patients with endometrial cancer with different characteristics were compared. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between VEGF and SCCAg expression levels and pathological parameters. Results The levels of VEGF and SCCAg in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). There were statistically significant differences in VEGF and SCCAg expression levels in patients with different degrees of differentiation, TNM stage, and situation of lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05). Correlation analysis showed that serum VEGF and SCCAg levels were negatively correlated with the differentiation degree of endometrial carcinoma (r < 0, P < 0.05), and positively correlated with TNM stage and lymph node metastasis (r > 0, P < 0.05). Conclusion In patients with endometrial cancer, serum VEGF and SCCAg are significantly overexpressed, and their levels can provide important reference for the diagnosis and treatment of endometrial cancer.
