BACKGROUND: Immunohistological assessment of Ki 67 expression is less expensive than Oncotype Dx, which is currently used to identify patients with lymph node-negative breast cancer, who will benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy.METHODS: The relationship of immunohistologically measured Ki 67 to Oncotype DX recurrence score (RS) was examined in 53 cases of TI-2 N0 M0 (oestrogen receptor-positive, HER2/neu negative) breast cancer.RESULTS: There was a strong linear correlation between Ki 67 value and the Oncotype Dx RS. All patients in the low Ki 67 group (Ki 67 of = 25%) had oncotype RSs of high or intermediate risk.CONCLUSION: Ki 67 proliferation value is a major, but not the sole determinant of Oncotype Dx score.
