Overview
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the lung include low PH, increased arterial PCO2, decreased arterial O2, increased serum calcium, and tumor cells in sputum and pleural effusion.[1]

- Low PH
- Increased arterial PCO2
- Decreased arterial O2
- Sputum cytology
- Sputum cytology demonstrates tumor cells
- Needle thoracentesis
- Pleural effusion cytology demonstrates tumor cells
