Clinicopathological value of ErbB2 gene and protein expression in osteochondroma.
CONCLUSION: ErbB2 gene amplification was associated with adverse clinicopathological status of osteochondroma and could serve as an index for malignant conversion of osteochondroma. Further research is required to verify the predictive values of ErbB2 for osteochondroma.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, Diagnostic Study.
