Representative cases of discordant HER2 IHC scores between serially sampled CB-MEs from a single patient. CB-MEs showed no membranous reactivity in any tumor cell, IHC score 0 (a; original magnification, × 200; scale bar, 100 μm; and c; original magnification, × 400; scale bar, 50 μm), whereas other CB-MEs from the same patient showed strong membranous staining, IHC score 3 (b; original magnification, × 200; scale bar, 100 μm; and d; original magnification, × 400; scale bar, 50 μm). HER2, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2; IHC, immunohistochemistry; CB-ME, cell block of malignant effusion
