Peptide nucleic acid clamp polymerase chain reaction reveals a deletion mutation of the BRAF gene in papillary thyroid carcinoma: A case report

The BRAF point mutation is the most common genetic event in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), occurring in 29–69% of such tumors. The V600E mutation accounts for up to 95% of all BRAF mutations. Therefore, the majority of diagnostic assays have been developed to detect only the V600E mutation of th...
