Predictive Value of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer/American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society Classification of Lung Adenocarcinoma in Tumor Recurrence and Patient Survival [1]
Outcomes of lung adenocarcinoma classified according to the new IASLC/ATS/ERS system were evaluated in this retrospective single-institution study involving 573 pts who underwent surgical treatment. Histologic patterns were associated with sex and tumor TNM factors. Recurrence was higher in micropapillary and solid-predominant cancers. These subtypes were also associated with poorer overall and disease-specific survival compared to other types.
