Global gene expression differentiating pure bronchioloalveolar carcinoma from adenocarcinoma with bronchioloalveolar carcinoma features.
OBJECTIVES Pure bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC) is considered the early stage of lung adenocarcinoma, and is even regarded as lung adenocarcinoma in situ. This study was designed to investigate the differences in the gene expression of pure BAC and that of adenocarcinoma with bronchioloalveolar features and explore the mechanism of BAC progression to adenocarcinoma with bronchioloalveolar fe...
متن کاملA case of synchronous bilateral lung cancers: EML4-ALK positive adenocarcinoma in the right lung and adenocarcinoma in situ (the former bronchioloalveolar carcinoma) in the left lung
BACKGROUND Recently it has been revealed that lung adenocarcinomas with distinct gene mutations or fusions are associated with particular histopathological entities. For example, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutations are often associated with well differentiated adenocarcinoma of the lung with bronchioloalveolar pattern. On the other hand, echinoderm microtubule-associated prot...
متن کاملFrom cystic pulmonary airway malformation, to bronchioloalveolar carcinoma and adenocarcinoma of the lung.
Bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC) of the lungs is a known morphological subtype of nonsmall cell cancer. The current study presents several carcinogenetic theories of BAC and the possible relationship with atypical adenomatous hyperplasia and congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM). The authors present an unusual case of BAC developed in an area of CPAM, with subsequent progression to ...
متن کاملAnatomic Pathology / CDX2 SEPARATES MUCINOUS BRONCHIOLOALVEOLAR FROM METASTATIC MUCINOUS COLORECTAL CARCINOMA Usefulness of Cdx2 in Separating Mucinous Bronchioloalveolar Adenocarcinoma of the Lung From Metastatic Mucinous Colorectal Adenocarcinoma
We studied the diagnostic value of Cdx2 to distinguish mucinous bronchioloalveolar carcinoma from mucinous colorectal adenocarcinoma metastatic to the lung. We retrieved 92 via the hospital computer system, including 30 mucinous bronchioloalveolar carcinomas, 32 nonmucinous bronchioloalveolar carcinomas, and 30 mucinous colorectal adenocarcinomas metastatic to the lung. All cases were confirmed...
متن کاملTelomerase activation in adenocarcinoma-bronchioloalveolar carcinoma.
A t present, human bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC) is a disease with an evolving definition. The clinical concept of BAC needs to be re-evaluated with careful attention to the 2004 World Health Organization (WHO) criteria [1] due to major clinical implications. Series published in the literature before 2000, i.e. before the WHO definition of BAC, had not discerned a specific survival advanta...
