Résumé

Initially considered as an inhibitor of angiogenesis, the role of thrombospondin is currently controversial. The primary purpose of our study was to determine the expression of thrombospondin (TSP) in invasive lung tumours. The secondary objectives were to investigate its relationship with other factors related to angiogenesis and to assess their clinicopathological significance.
