1 Expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in thoracic sarcomas
Akira Iyoda, MD, Kenzo Hiroshima, MD, Masayuki Baba, MD, Takehiko Fujisawa, MD, Toshikazu Yusa, MD, Hidemi Ohwada, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 71, Issue 5, Pages (May 2001) DOI: /S (01) Copyright © 2001 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Immunohistochemical staining of an undifferentiated sarcoma with anti-VEGF antibody. The expression of VEGF was mainly detected in the cytoplasm of tumor cells (×120). The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (01) ) Copyright © 2001 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

3 Fig 2 Immunohistochemical staining of endothelial cells using anti-CD34 antibody (×120). The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (01) ) Copyright © 2001 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

4 Fig 3 Analysis of the overall survival for thoracic sarcomas. The overall survival for sarcomas exhibiting strong VEGF expression was lower than that for sarcomas with absent or faint VEGF expression.

5 Fig 4 Analysis of the disease-free survival for thoracic sarcomas. The disease-free survival for sarcomas exhibiting strong VEGF expression was significantly lower than that for sarcomas with absent or faint VEGF expression (p < 0.05).
