OBJECTIVE: KRAS mutations are frequently seen in malignancies with mucinous morphology. In our previous study, mucinous endometrial carcinomas were associated with a significantly higher frequency of KRAS mutations as compared with matched conventional endometrioid carcinomas. This study expands our previous report by exploring possible intratumoral heterogeneity for KRAS gene mutations in the mucinous components...
