The detection of BRAF V600E immunoexpression in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is extremely important because of its association with poor prognosis. Is poor prognosis really associated with all histological variants of thyroid papillary carcinoma? To contribute to this elucidation, using the BRAF V600E mutation-specific antibody, the present study was performed to determine the association between BRAF V600E immunoexpression and clinicopathological variant groups of PTC. |
