Analysis of lung biopsies using the 2015 WHO criteria and detection of sensitizing mutations——a single-institution experience of 5032 cases

Abstract: Background: A specialized classification for small biopsies was added to the 2015 WHO classification of lung tumors. The purpose of this study is to explore and summarize the experience of applying the newly proposed classifications and criteria to clinical practice. Methods: We used the 2015 WHO criteria to sort out 5032 small lung biopsies from a group of Chinese patients, and demonstrated their clinicopathological features, mutational status and the relationship between these factors. Results: The most comm… Show more

“…The categorization into TCs and ACs is based on the rate of mitosis and the presence of necrosis. Immunohistochemistry is essential for diagnosis, with an antibody panel consisting of chromogranin A, synaptophysin and CD56 being recommended ( 5 , 6 ). In addition, certain carcinoids exhibit staining for thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF-1).…”

“…In addition, certain carcinoids exhibit staining for thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF-1). The Ki67 labeling index is utilized in order to avoid misdiagnosis of high-grade neuroendocrine carcinomas ( 5 , 6 ). Furthermore, neuron-specific enolase (NSE) is a highly specific marker for neuroendocrine cells and is expressed in lung carcinoids ( 7 ).…”
