Table 3. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) in relation to mitotic index.

Mitotic index Head and neck SCC
EGFR-n (%) EGFR+ n (%) Total n (%)
< 10 12 (22.6) 9 (17.0) 21 (39.6)
≥ 10 < 20 6 (11.3) 8 (15.1) 14 (26.4)
≥ 20 2 (3.8) 16 (30.2) 18 (34.0)
Total 20 33 53 *

EGFR - = EGFR not detected; EGFR + = EGFR detected;

*

among the 54 patients, one patient had no evaluation of EGFR in SCC to compare with the mitotic index.
