PR expression of fibroid when ablated in vitro at different temperatures (shown as arrow, ×400). (A) Fibroid ablated at a temperature of 60°C. (B) Fibroid ablated at a temperature of 80°C. (C) Fibroid ablated at a temperature of 100°C. (a) Group A. (b) Group B. (c) Group C. In group A, the PR expression decreased with increasing temperature, which was significantly different among the 3 treatment groups ablated at different temperatures (P < 0.05). In group B, the PR optical density of the 60°C treatment group was higher than that of 80°C treatment group, and the PR optical density of 80°C treatment group was higher than that of 100°C treatment group. In group C, the PR optical density of 60°C treatment group was higher than that of 80 and 100°C treatment groups. However, the PR optical density between 80 and 100°C treatment groups had no significant difference (P > 0.05). PR: progesterone receptor.
