Immunohistochemical Expression of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor in Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Introduction: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling plays an important role in various cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We aimed to evaluate immunoexpression of EGFR in HCC and surrounding non-tumor liver tissue and to correlate it to multiple clinicopathologic data.

Material And Methods: We analyzed 60 patients with HCC for multiple clinicopathologic characteristics and survival.
