In this study, we investigated the mutation status of KRAS (exons 2, codon 12/13), NRAS (exons 2/3/4, codon 12/13/59/61/117/146) and BRAF (exons 15, codon 600) in 260 patients, including 86 cases of colon cancer, 140 cases of rectal cancer and 34 cases of gastric cancer. Here, BRAF is linked to gastric cancer.
