Cell proliferation and chromosomal imbalances, important parameters in relation to @entity5 progression, were studied in @entity1567 (n=20), a benign odontogenic @entity5 of locally recurrent nature. Immunocytochemical staining with @entity1758 antibody and @entity8625 ( @entity8625 ) were performed on @entity406 -fixed paraffin-embedded @entity1567 . The mean follow-up time was 12.4 years. An @entity1758 -index was formed by counting 5000 @entity5 -cell nuclei in 10-15 randomly chosen high-power fields and calculating percentages of positively stained cells. @entity8625 involved hybridization of @entity2823 - @entity1977 -labeled @entity5 DNA with Texas-red-labeled normal DNA. Images were digitally analyzed. The @entity1758 -index (range 0-2.51) was low for all @entity5 . No statistically significant correlation between @entity1758 index and tendency to recurrence was found. @entity2008 were detected in 2 of 17 cases. The results suggest that formation of an @entity1758 index is not helpful in assessing future clinical behavior of an @entity1567 and that chromosomal imbalances are uncommon.
