Abstract excerpt
The authors evaluated methods of recognition of neuroendocrine differentiation in lung cancer because this is thought to bear prognostic value. One hundred forty lung tumors were divided by immunohistochemical analysis using neuroendocrine markers (neuron-specific enolase, Leu7, chromogranin, neu...
