BRAFV600E mutation analysis by immunohistochemistry in patients with thoracic metastases from colorectal cancer.

abstract：:Sex cord-stromal tumours (SCSTs) consist of a heterogeneous group of neoplasms with diverse clinicopathological features and biological behaviour. They often present as a diagnostic challenge as they have varied and occasionally overlapping histomorphology and some may even mimic non-SCSTs. An accurate diagnosis is im...
