Invasive breast carcinomas of no special type (IC-NST) are the heterogeneous tumours showing distinct prognostic features even in patients with similar clinicopathological characteristics. To date, many clinicopathological data have been analyzed to make a guess about prognosis and to determine treatment modality. In this study, HER-2/neu status was analyzed by using both immunohistochemical (IHC) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) methods, and its correlations with hormone receptor status and clinicopathological parameters were investigated.
