ABSTRACT
The most common problem in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is inadequate specimen fixation. The paper focused on specimen fixation and standardized protocol in immunohistochemistry staining and gene mutation detection. We have adjusted some procedure used in immunohistochemistry staining and c-kit gene detection to improve the quality of inadequately fixed specimen. It maybe useful for clinicians, pathologists and technicians working in immunohistochemistry labs and gene detection labs.
