pubmed:abstractText |
Human bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC) is a disease with an evolving definition. "Pure" BAC, characterized by a bronchioloalveolar growth pattern and no evidence of stromal, vascular, or pleural invasion, represents only 2 to 6% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cases, but up to 20% of NSCLC cases may contain elements of BAC. This imprecise definition makes it difficult to perform epidemiologic analyses or to generate accurate animal models. However, because BAC appears to behave clinically differently from adenocarcinoma, a better understanding of this disease entity is imperative.
