Pathologic heterogeneity of lung adenocarcinomas: A novel pathologic index predicts survival
Although the most predominant subtype of invasive lung adenocarcinoma has been reported to have clinical significance, a major limitation of this concept is that most tumors are mixed-subtype. Therefore, we aimed to determine the individual prognostic significance of each subtype and also attempted to establish a pathologic index that reflects the pathologic subtypes and overall heterogeneity o...
متن کاملNormal and pathologic biochemistry of the lung.
The lung is an important metabolic organ. Glucose provides the major source of substrate. Oxidative pathways are active and are required to maintain normal tissue energy stores. Synthetic activity in the lung is extensive and related mainly to synthesis of dipalmitoyl lecithin and other components of the lung surfactant system. The lung plays an important role in the metabolism of xenobiotics a...
متن کاملPathologic characteristics of drug-induced lung disease.
The surgical pathologist's role in the diagnosis of adverse pulmonary and pleural drug effect requires an appreciation of the clinico-radiologic scenario and particular knowledge of morphologic patterns of lung injury. Bronchoscopic biopsies may be helpful in some cases of DAD, eosinophilic pneumonia, or OP. Extrapolating patterns of lung involvement from small biopsies and cytologic preparatio...
متن کاملPathologic findings in lung volume reduction surgery.
PURPOSE Lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS) has re-emerged as an alternative in the management of patients with chronic, debilitating, emphysematous lung disease. This has permitted the formal evaluation of pathologic pulmonary changes present in these patients. This study seeks to describe systematically the pathologic findings present in patients undergoing LVRS. METHODS Tissue sections st...
متن کاملSuperficial Endobronchial Lung Cancer: Radiologic-Pathologic Correlation
OBJECTIVE To analyze the plain chest radiographic and CT findings of superficial endobronchial lung cancer and to correlate these with the findings of histopathology. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study involved 19 consecutive patients with pathologically proven lung cancer confined to the bronchial wall. Chest radiographs and CT scans were reviewed for the presence of parenchymal abnormalities,...
