Abstract | Pulmonary adenocarcinoma composed of pure or predominant solid components is reported to be a highly malignant tumor. However, the existence of solid components and its connection with biological behavior have not been well documented. To answer this question, we histologically subclassified poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma (P/D Ad Ca) into solid type and non-solid type, and compared the biological behavioral characteristics. |
