Which Adenocarcinoma of lung is most aggressive?
lepidic subtype is associated with good prognosis, acinar and papillary subtypes show intermediate prognosis, whereas micropapillary and solid subtypes correlate with the worst prognosis
Leading cause of cancer death
carcinoma lung
lung cancer is the most diagnosed type of cancer, and the leading cause of cancer death
Which Adenocarcinoma of lung is least aggressive?
lepidic type adenocarcinoma - grow along the alveolar walls
lepidic subtype is associated with good prognosis, acinar and papillary subtypes show intermediate prognosis, whereas micropapillary and solid subtypes correlate with the worst prognosis
CK7 is present in many lung cancers, but absent from
