    Background: Predominant histologic subtypes have been reported as predictors of survival of patients with pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Aims: To evaluate the predictive value of histologic classification in resected lung adenocarcinoma using the classification systems proposed by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer, American Thoracic Society, European Respiratory Society, and World Health Organization (2015). Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: The histologic classification of a large cohort of 491 patients with resected lung adenocarcinoma (stages I-III) was retrospectively analyzed. The tumors were classified according to their predominant component (lepidic, acinar, papillary, solid, micropapillary, and mucinous), and their predictive values were assessed for clinicopathologic characteristics and overall survival. Results: The patient cohort comprised 158 (32.2%) patients with solid predominant, 150 (30.5%) with acinar predominant, 80 (16.3%) with papillary predominant, 75 (15.3%) with lepidic predominant, 22 (4.5%) with mucinous, and 5 (1.0%) with micropapillary subtype, and 1 (0.2%) with adenocarcinoma in situ. Overall 5-year survival of 491 patients was found to be 51.8%. Patients with lepidic, acinar, and mucinous adenocarcinoma had 70.9%, 59.0%, and 66.6% 5-year survival, respectively, and there was no statistically significant difference between them. Whereas patients with solid, papillary, and micropapillary predominant adenocarcinoma had 41.0%, 40.5%, and 0.0% 5-year survival, respectively. Compared to other histologic subtypes, patients with solid and papillary predominant adenocarcinoma had significantly lower survival than those with lepidic (p<0.001, p=0.002), acinar (p<0.001, p=0.008), and mucinous (p=0.048, p=0.048) subtypes, respectively. The survival difference between patients with solid subtype and those with papillary subtype was not statistically significant (p=0.67). Conclusion: Solid and papillary histologic subtypes are poor prognostic factors in resected invasive lung adenocarcinoma.

    The Role of Sublobar Resection in T1 N0 Non-Small-Cell Pulmonary Carcinoma
    Yaldiz, D; Yakut, FC; Kaya, SÖ; Gürsoy, S; Yaldiz, MS
    OBJECTIVES: In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of resection type on survival in patients with stage IA non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other factors affecting the prognosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between January 2005 and December 2016, we retrospectively screened 269 patients who were resected and were having T1N0M0 non-small-cell pulmonary carcinoma. The survival time after surgery was obtained from the National Population Registration System (MERNIS) system. Patients were classified according to the extent of resection. Additionally, age, sex, smoking, concomitant disease, histological type, pathological stage (T1a-T1b-T1c), and the presence of postoperative complications were evaluated to determine whether they are prognostic factors or not. RESULTS: A lobectomy was performed in 257 cases (95.5%), and a sublobar resection was performed in 12 patients (4.5%). The 5-year survival was 62.5% for lobectomies and 73.3% for sublobar resections. Although 5-year survival was better in patients with a limited resection, it was not statistically significant (p=0.301). Histopathological evaluation revealed that 130 patients (48.3%) had adenocarcinoma, 113 (42.0%) had squamous cell carcinoma, and 26 (9.7%) had the other types. The 5-year survival rate was 69.9% in patients with adenocarcinoma and 53.2% in squamous cell carcinoma, and this was statistically significant (p=0.036). The overall 5- and 10-year survival rates in all patients were 65.0% and 47.2%, respectively. CONCLUSION: Although lobectomy is the standard type of resection in the early stage of lung cancer cases in the Thoracic Surgery Department of Dr. Suat Seren Chest Diseases and Thoracic Surgery Training and Research Hospital patients who underwent sublobar resection were found to be having partially better survival, but it was not statistically significant. Owing to the small number of cases, we think that sublobar resections should be prospectively investigated with more extensive series in patients with T1 NSCLC.

    Papillary predominant histological subtype predicts poor survival in lung adenocarcinoma
    Yaldiz, D; Acar, A; Kaya, SÖ; Aydogdu, Z; Gursoy, S; Yaldiz, S
    Background: This study aims to investigate whether papillary predominant histological subtype can predict poor survival in lung adenocarcinoma. Methods: Between January 2005 and December 2016, a total of 80 patients with papillary predominant subtype lung adenocarcinoma (70 males, 10 females; mean age 60.7 years; range, 42 to 79 years) operated in our clinic were included in the study. These patients were compared with those having lepidic, acinar, and mucinous subtypes. Overall and five- year survival rates were evaluated. Results: Five-year survival was 40.5% in papillary predominant histological subtype, while this rate was 70.9%, 59.0%, and 66.6% in lepidic, acinar, and mucinous subtypes, respectively. Papillary subtype showed significantly poor survival compared to lepidic (p=0.002), acinar (p=0.008), and mucinous subtypes (p=0.048). In Stage 1 disease, it was more evident (papillary, 47.5%, lepidic 86.9% [p=0.001], acinar 69.3% [p=0.040], and mucinous 90.0% [p=0.050]). Conclusion: Our study results suggest that papillary predominant subtype predicts poor survival in lung adenocarcinoma and these cases may be candidates for adjuvant treatment modalities even in the earlier stages of disease.
