Morphological characterization and molecular profiling of malignant pericardial effusion in patients with pulmonary adenocarcinoma.

Conclusions: MPCE shows micropapillary and solid cytological patterns predominant with mucin secretion. MPCE are suitable to analyze oncogenic mutations and to develop targeted therapy for patients with pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Further molecular investigations may reveal novel molecular alterations.
