Introduction: Ovarian carcinomas are the chief cause of death among women. Presently so many biomarkers are accessible for the early detection of the ovarian carcinomas like P53, EGFR, Ki67, CK, HER 2/ Neu. In this study we analyze the prognostic significance of HER 2/Neu in various surface epithelial ovarian tumors. Aims of the study: To know the prognostic significance of HER-2/Neu in surface epithelial ovarian tumor.
