Clinicopathological characteristics with EGFR, ALK, ROS1 genetic alternation and prognostic analysis of primary lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma

TL;DR: Serum positive neuron-specific enolase level seemed to be a prognostic biomarker for DFS in LELC patients, and more investigations of other genes distributions should be explored in the future for better understanding of this rare subtype of lung cancer.

The IASLC Lung Cancer Staging Project: Proposals for the Revisions of the T Descriptors in the Forthcoming Eighth Edition of the TNM Classification for Lung Cancer

TL;DR: Recommendations are to subclassify T1 into T1a, T1b, and T1c, and to group involvement of main bronchus as T2 regardless of distance from carina; to group partial and total atelectasis/pneumonitis as T1; to reclassify diaphragm invasion as T4; and to delete mediastinal pleura invasion as a T descriptor.
