Because histologically and immunohistochemically there is considerable overlap between colonic and vesical adenocarcinoma, extensive clinical and radiologic workup is required for diagnostic accuracy. [archivesofpathology.org]

[…] e20035 Background: The prognosis difference among lung adenocarcinoma patients with different pathological subtypes remains controversial. [ascopubs.org]

Furthermore, each of these elements impacts prognosis differently ( 4, 5 ). Using these microscopic parameters, the impact of morphology on prognosis in adenocarcinoma is currently under investigation ( 6 - 9 ). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The impact of the 2015 classification on prognosis was reviewed by a PubMed search for search terms “adenocarcinoma”, “lung pathology” and “prognosis” and relevant publications reviewed. [err.ersjournals.com]

Prognosis for Adenocarcinoma The prognosis for lung cancers that are advanced at the time of diagnosis are generally poor. [lunginjuries.org]

Etiology The exact etiology is unknown. There is a strong association with GERD and obesity. There is no specific, known genetic link. [orpha.net]

Development of pericardial effusion with concurrent improvement or stability of malignant lesion, negative cytology and brisk response to corticosteroids indicates an immune etiology. [mdedge.com]

In addition, many of the known or suspected risk factors for esophageal adenocarcinoma, including smoking, alcohol and obesity, share a common suspected inflammatory etiology (Reid, 2010; Cook, 2013; Shaheen, 2013). [whi.org]

In the last 2 decades, adenocarcinoma has replaced squamous cell cancer of the lung as the most prevalent non-small cell cancer.[3] Pathophysiology Lung adenocarcinoma is classified into 4 types: adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), minimally invasive adenocarcinoma [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Increasing evidence indicates that the interplay of autophagy and apoptosis is crucial in the pathophysiology of LUAD [17]. [hindawi.com]

Treatment includes surgical removal of the tumor to prevent its growth. After surgery, the patient may undergo chemotherapy and radiation to prevent the adenocarcinoma coming back. [news-medical.net]

These therapies can derail the cancer’s growth by preventing or changing chemical reactions linked to particular mutations. For example, some target therapies prevent cancer cells from receiving chemical “messages” telling them to grow. [drugs.com]
