Former Mucinous Bronchioloalveolar Carcinoma Revisited

This is a brief case report of invasive multicentric mucinous adenocarcinoma presented at a rather young age with bronchorrhea and persistent consolidation that ended up with the patient demise; nevertheless, we demonstrate relevant radiological and pathological features with emphasis on the new classification of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma, a term that should no longer be in use.

Bronchioloalveolar carcinoma: computed tomography findings.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the appearance of bronchioloalveolar lung carcinoma on computed tomography (CT) scans, and to determine the frequency of signs suggestive of this diagnosis. CT features of 42 cases with pathologically proven bronchioloalveolar carcinoma were retrospectively analysed for pattern, size, location and secondary signs suggesting the diagnosis. Bronchio...

Solitary nodular pure bronchioloalveolar carcinoma.

irregular borders ( fig. 2 ). It was histologically diagnosed as a pure nonmucinous bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC) ( fig. 3 ). The patient was alive without signs of tumor recurrence 6 months later. BAC is known for low FDG uptake presumed to be secondary to the lower proliferation rate of these tumors [1] . Particularly low metabolic activity is observed in pure BAC, unifocal and mucin-con...
