Overview
Biopsy findings associated with squamous cell carcinoma of the lung include: prominent nucleoli, eosinophilic cytoplasm, and intracellular bridges. Different sub-types of lung tissue biopsy for squamous cell carcinoma of the lung, include: needle biopsy, open biopsy, and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.
Biopsy
- Common types of lung tissue biopsy, include:[1]
- Needle biopsy
- Open biopsy
- Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS)
- Indications for lung tissue biopsy in squamous cell carcinoma of the lung, include:[2]
- Determination of tumor histologic subtype
- Characterization of genetic mutations
- Determination of intra or extra-thoracic metastatic disease
