Abstract excerpt

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutational analysis is critical for guiding the treatment of lung adenocarcinoma. In everyday clinical practice, EGFR testing is frequently centralized in referral laboratories that may receive paucicellular cytologic specimens, often fixed in various ways. We conducted a search for EGFR mutations in 108 cytologic samples of lung adenocarcinoma from different hospitals...
