Tumor microvessel density, measured by CD31 immunohistochemistry, correlates with survival in patients with ovarian cancer. CA 125 is secreted by most ovarian cancers, and we have previously shown that the rate of decline of CA 125 is also predictive of ovarian cancer survival. Because increased tumor vascularity may allow metastases on one hand, while facilitating the delivery of chemotherapy on the other, we investigated the relationship of tumor microvessel density to preoperative CA 125, residual disease, and the initial response to treatment.
