Clinicopathological and genetic analyses of pulmonary enteric adenocarcinoma

Pulmonary enteric adenocarcinoma (PEAC) is a rare variant of pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Due to its rarity, few pathological and molecular studies have been performed on PEAC. We herein conducted clinicopathological, immunohistochemical and molecular analyses of PEAC with a focus on its differentiation from invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma (IMA).
