Discordant results exist about the role of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) overexpression and/or HER2 amplification in lung adenocarcinoma. We aimed to compare the performance of HercepTest and PATHWAY anti-HER2 (4B5) by correlating immunohistochemistry (IHC) results with silver in situ hybridization (SISH) in adenocarcinoma lung specimens.
