To investigate the pathological features of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP)-associated pulmonary adenocarcinoma.
Surgically resected adenocarcinomas associated with IIP (the IIP group) and adenocarcinomas without IIP (the non-IIP group) were subjected to analysis. Adenocarcinomas in the IIP group were subdivided into two groups: one group included tumours connected to bronchiolar metaplasia in honeycomb lesions (the H-IIP group), and the other included tumours unrelated to honeycomb lesions (the NH-IIP group). Histomorphological appearance and immunohistochemical expression were compared among the H-IIP group, the NH-IIP group, and the non-IIP group. Most of the tumour cells in the H-IIP group had a tall, columnar shape that showed similar features to proximal bronchial epithelium, whereas tumour cells in the NH-IIP group and the non-IIP group had a club-like shape that showed similar features to respiratory bronchiolar/alveolar epithelium. Adenocarcinomas in the H-IIP group tended to be negative for thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1) and positive for hepatocyte nuclear factor-4α (HNF-4α). The frequency of EGFR mutations was significantly lower in adenocarcinomas in the H-IIP group, although the frequencies of KRAS and ALK mutations did not differ among the three groups.
Idiopathic interstitial pneumonia-associated pulmonary adenocarcinomas, especially those arising from honeycomb lesions, have distinct pathological features.
研究特发性间质性肺炎(IIP)相关肺腺癌的病理特征。
对手术切除的与IIP相关的腺癌(IIP组)和无IIP的腺癌(非IIP组)进行分析。IIP组的腺癌分为两组:一组包括与蜂窝状病变中细支气管化生相关的肿瘤(H-IIP组),另一组包括与蜂窝状病变无关的肿瘤(NH-IIP组)。比较H-IIP组、NH-IIP组和非IIP组之间的组织形态学表现和免疫组化表达。H-IIP组的大多数肿瘤细胞呈高柱状,与近端支气管上皮具有相似特征,而NH-IIP组和非IIP组的肿瘤细胞呈棒状,与呼吸性细支气管/肺泡上皮具有相似特征。H-IIP组的腺癌倾向于甲状腺转录因子-1(TTF-1)阴性、肝细胞核因子-4α(HNF-4α)阳性。H-IIP组腺癌的表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)突变频率显著较低,尽管三组之间KRAS和间变性淋巴瘤激酶(ALK)突变频率无差异。
