Abstract

The incidence of vascular and lymphatic emboli in a specimen of resected non-small cell lung cancer is variable according to different authors' experience as well as prognostic significance in patients treated by surgery. We aimed at evaluating these factors in an unselected population of patients with primary pulmonary adenocarcinoma treated by major surgical resection.
