Abstract
•
There are not standard guidelines for the selection and treatment of patients with synchronous multiple nodules with ground glass/lepidic features.
•
The presence of different EGFR mutations in the various resected nodules with ground glass/lepidic features suggests the existence of multifocal primary tumors.
•
The results suggest the possibility that a germline mutation in an oncogene could facilitate the development of a tumor with additional mutations in the same oncogene.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Lung Cancer is a peer-reviewed bimonthly journal that publishes original articles describing various aspects of clinical and translational research of lung cancer. Clinical Lung Cancer is devoted to articles on detection, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of lung cancer. The main emphasis is on recent scientific developments in all areas related to lung cancer. Specific areas of interest include clinical research and mechanistic approaches; drug sensitivity and resistance; gene and antisense therapy; pathology, markers, and prognostic indicators; chemoprevention strategies; multimodality therapy; and integration of various approaches.
