Best Pathology Practice
• Tissue specimens should be managed not only
for diagnosis but also to maximize the amount of
tissue available for molecular studies
• To guide therapy for patients with advanced lung
adenocarcinoma, each institution should
develop a multidisciplinary team that
coordinates the optimal approach to obtaining
and processing biopsy/cytology specimens to
provide expeditious diagnostic and molecular
results

Best Pathology Practice
• When paired cytology and biopsy specimens exist,
they should be reviewed together to achieve the
most specific and nondiscordant diagnoses
• Cell blocks should be prepared from all cytology
samples including pleural fluids

Criteria for Morphologic Diagnosis of ADC and SQC
on H&E Stained Slides
• Morphologic features of glandular (adenomatous)
differentiation:
– Gland formation
– Mucin production
• Morphologic features of squamous differentiation:
– Intercellular bridges
– Single cell keratinization
– Keratin production (keratin pearl formation)
Large Cell Carcinoma
• This diagnosis should not be made on small samples
(biopsies or cytology)
• The diagnosis should be NSCLC NOS
What Is The Rate Of NSCLC NOS?
• Study of California Cancer Registry: 175, 298 lung
cancer patients diagnosed from 1989 to 2006
• On histology: 22.1% (may be higher)
• On cytology: 37%
• The rate increases with decrease in sample size
• The rate has risen over time
Ou, S and Zell, J (2009) J Thorac Oncol 4(10): 1202.
Reproducibility of Pathologic
Diagnosis in NSCLC
• Digitalized H&E from 94 surgically resected specimens
were reviewed by 24 Pathologists (12 lung expert
Pathologists, 12 community Pathologists)
• Inter-rater agreement on differentiating SQC vs. non-SQC
• Kappa 0.55 for all pathologists
• Kappa 0.64 among lung expert pathologists
• Kappa 0.41 among non-expert community
pathologists

Reporting Small Lung Samples
• The term NSCLC-NOS should be used as little as
possible, and be applied only when a more
specific diagnosis is not possible by morphology
and/or special stains
• The term large cell carcinoma should not be
used for diagnosis in small biopsy or cytology
specimens and should be restricted to resection
specimens where the tumor is thoroughly

Conclusions
• Current practice of pathology in lung
cancer requires more precise classification
of tumor type
• For poorly differentiated NSCLC, a minimal
set of immunohistochemistry markers
(TTF1, mucin, p63 and CK5) should reduce
the number of NOS to <5%.
• Cell block preparation should be part of
the routine practice of cytology (especially
for FNA and fluid)
• For both small biopsy and cytology, every
