OBJECTIVE To investigate the potential malignant characteristics and pathogenesis of endometriosis as well as the role of human growth hormone and epidermal growth factor receptor in the pathogenesis of malignant transformation of endometriosis.METHODS The immunohistochemical S-P method was used to examine the expression of human growth hormone and epidermal growth factor receptor in the eutopic and ectopic endometrium of 84 cases of endometriosis.RESULTS The percentage of positive cases of human growth hormone in eutopic and ectopic endometrium was 90.77% (59/65) and 85.71% (72/84) respectively. The percentage of positive cases of epidermal growth factor receptor in eutopic and ectopic endometrium was 81.54% (53/65)and 89.29% (75/84) respectively. The positive rate of epidermal growth factor receptor in ectopic endometrium was higher than that in the eutopic endometrium but without a statistically significant difference (P>0.05).CONCLUSION Endometriosis is caused by multiple factors, which possesses some biologic features of neoplastic tissue such as invasion and metastasis. Both human growth hormone and epidermal growth factor receptor are highly expressed in eutopic and ectopic endometrium, which lead directly or indirectly to the pathogenesis of endometriosis and promote the initiation and malignant transformation of endometriosis.
