If IHC is 2+, a negative in situ hybridization (Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), Chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH), or Silver in situ hybridization (SISH)) test is required by local laboratory testing.), positive lymph node or negative lymph node with at least one of the following conditions: (1) histological grade II or III; (2) tumor size \> 0.5
