HER-2/<i>neu</i>Oncogene Amplification by Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization in Epithelial Tumors of the Ovary
1 Mar 1999
Abstract excerpt
HER-2/neu gene amplification and protein overexpression have been associated with prognosis in breast, lung and prostate cancers but have not been extensively studied in ovarian carcinoma. For the study, we selected 5-micron-thick, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections from 74 cases of ovarian epithelial tumors of low malignant potential and ovarian carcinoma. Tumors were graded and staged and...
