Original Source: Behaviour and survival of high-grade neuroendocrine carcinomas of the lung.
INTRODUCTION: Large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma is an aggressive variant of large-cell carcinoma of the lung, which has poor survival in most series, resembling that of small-cell lung carcinoma. We report our retrospective assessment of surgically-resected cases of both tumours. METHODS: 33 large-cell neuroendocrine carcinomas and 16 peripheral small-cell lung carcinomas were reassessed retrospectively. Survival rates of both tumours in surgically-resected cases were calculated and compared using Kaplan-...
