Expression of bcl-2 in 45 cases of primary gallbladder carcinomas and 39 cases of gallbladder adenomas were detected by streptavidin-biotin-peroxidase complex (SABC) methods. The results revealed that the positive rate of bcl-2 in primary gallbladder carcinomas was 71.1% and that in gallbladder adenomas was 87.2%, there was no obvious difference between them (P>0.05). Expression of bcl-2 in well, moderately and poorly differentiated primary gallbladder carcinomas were 82.8%, 82.4% and 50.0% respectively with significant statistical difference (P<0.01). The positive rate of bcl-2 in stages Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ of primary gallbladder carcinomas were 81.3% and 55.2% respectively with no significant differnce. The result suggests that expression of bcl-2 in primary gallbladder carcinomas has no correlation with clinic stages.
