Diagnosis of lung cancer: a necropsy-based study of 128 cases (1997-2016).

CONCLUSIONS: Autopsies confirmed all LC diagnoses received in life, including 46 that would have been considered only possible LC based on clinical workup. The overall survival in this case series was poor. The high prevalence of pleural plaques and asbestosis suggest severity of asbestos exposures. PMID: 32811344 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
