  • There was a statistically significant relation for CD133 expression and the (T) status of the tumor (P=0.012), while CD44 expression was significantly related to both tumor size (P=0.006) and

  • CD44 expression was significantly related to CD68 expression (P=0.013) but not related to the expression of CD117 (P=0.137)
