Understanding Your Results

Interpretation of FLI-1 immunohistochemistry results involves assessing the staining pattern in tissue samples to determine protein expression, aiding in cancer diagnosis and classification.
Positive nuclear staining for FLI-1 may indicate expression in endothelial cells or certain cancers like Ewing sarcoma.
Negative staining may suggest absence in tumors such as rhabdomyosarcoma or adenocarcinoma colon.
Results should be correlated with clinical history and other diagnostic tests for accurate diagnosis.
⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

Consult a doctor if you experience symptoms like unexplained weight loss, fatigue, persistent pain, lumps, or other signs of cancer for early diagnosis and treatment.

Risks & Considerations

  • Minimal risks associated with biopsy collection, such as infection or bleeding.
  • Consult healthcare provider for specific risks.
