TTF-1 is a highly useful marker to assist in differentiating between pulmonary and nonpulmonary, nonthyroid adenocarcinomas. Our case shows that TTF-1 is highly useful in differentiating between pancreatic metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma and primary pancreatic cancer, especially when the clinical course and imaging findings are not helpful for differentiating them.
甲状腺转录因子-1(TTF-1)是一种非常有用的标志物,有助于鉴别肺腺癌与非肺、非甲状腺来源的腺癌。我们的病例表明,TTF-1在鉴别肺腺癌胰腺转移瘤与原发性胰腺癌方面非常有用,尤其是当临床病程和影像学表现无助于二者鉴别时。
