Table 3. Immunohistochemical staining intensity of EGFR and LRIG1 in tumours compared with normal tissue from the same patients.
| Patient | Type of RCC | EGFR staining | LRIG1 staining |
|---|---|---|---|
| C.2 | Conventional | +++ | ++ |
| C.9 | Conventional | ++ | +a |
| C.11 | Conventional | +++ | 0 |
| C.15 | Conventional | ++ | + |
| C.17 | Conventional | + | + |
| P.6 | Papillary | +++ | +a |
| P.8 | Papillary | +++ | ++ |
| P.9 | Papillary | ++ | + |
The intensity was graded 0=no staining, +=less staining than the kidney cortex from the same patient, ++=equal staining as kidney cortex, +++=more staining than the kidney cortex.
Exhibited scattered clusters of positive cells.
