Core Tip	The role of HER2/neu was seen in 50 cases of gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma by immunohistochemistry. Overall, HER2/neu protein overexpression was found in 33 (66%) patients (P = 0.000), with 23 (69.6%) being colorectal carcinoma while the remaining 10 (30%) were gastric carcinoma. There was highly significant association between tumor grades and HER2/neu protein overexpression. HER2/neu protein was overexpressed in those adenocarcinomas showing a significant association between grade of tumor and HER2/neu protein overexpression. This discovery may improve treatment options for cases of gastric and colorectal carcinomas.
