    Abstract:
    Proliferation parameters such as mitotic index, tumor growth rate and cell loss were identified in 1,048 squamous cervical carcinoma patients treated at the Center's Clinic (1951-1996). Mitotic indices ranged 0.2-5.1% (average 1.13 +/- 0.03%), Ki-67--4.1-97.8% (average 49.97 +/- 3.02%). A direct and significant correlation between the two latter parameters was established. Cell loss levels ranged 59-99.9% (average 97.2 +/- 0.002%). Our results suggest that the correlation between tumor growth rate and cell loss might be of the utmost importance among the other prognostic factors.
