Background & Methods: The present study entitled “To correlate HER-2/neu status in invasive ductal carcinoma breast with histopathological grades of Nottingham score” was conducted in Dept. of Pathology, at SRMSIMS, Bareilly. Result: Out of 56 cases all grade 1 tumour were negative for Her2/neu while in grade 2, 17 cases (43.58%) were positive for Her2/neu and in grade 3, 08 cases (80%) were positive for Her 2/neu. Study Designed: Observational Study Conclusion: Among all the 60 cases studied it was seen most of the cases with grade 1 tumor were positive for ER & PR receptors & carry better prognosis, while the grade 3 cases were mostly positive for Her2/neu & have poor prognosis.
