Is loss of PTEN expression associated with metastatic disease in patients with endometrial carcinoma?
The loss of PTEN expression is relatively frequent in endometrial carcinoma and is associated significantly with metastatic disease. This indicates that the PTEN system plays an important role in some endometrial carcinomas, but further studies of PTEN protein expression related to various genetic alterations are necessary.
LAS pacing is safe and feasible. LAS pacing may prevent the progression to persistent AF in SSS patients with dual-chamber pacemakers.
