Abstract

Abstract Background: Ovarian carcinoma is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths among females. Many treatment strategies have been developed; however, the prognosis is still poor. This study aims to evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of BRAF and Nrf2 in serous ovarian tumors and to correlate their expression with clinicopathological features of the cases. Material and methods: This uncontrolled retrospective study was performed on 50 cases; benign (10), borderline (12) and malignant serous ovarian neoplasm (28). The malignant serous tumors included 9 low grade cases and 19 high grade cases. The immunohistochemical expression of Nrf2 and BRAF was correlated with clinicopathological features of prognostic importance. Results: The mean of BRAF expression is increased in borderline but it is almost equal for low grade and high- grade carcinoma which was statistically significant (P value
