Incidence In most series, LCLC s comprise between 5 and 10 of all lung cancers. Diagnosis LCLC is, in effect, a diagnosis of exclusion , in that the tumor cells lack light microscopic characteristics that would classify the neoplasm as a small cellcarcinoma, squamous cellcarcinoma, adenocarcinoma, or other more specific histologic type of lung cancer. LCLC is differentiated from small cell lung carcinoma SCLC primarily by the larger size of the anaplastic cells, a higher cytoplasmic to nuclear size ratio, and a lack of salt and pepper chromatin. Classification The newest revisions of the World Health Organization Histological Typing of Lung Cancer schema include several variants of LCLC, including a basaloid, b clear cell, c lymphoepithelioma like, d rhabdoid phenotype, and e large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma. In addition, a subvariant , called combined large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma , or c LCNEC, is recognized under the new system. To be designated a c LCNEC, the tumor must contain at least 10 LCNEC cells, in combination with at least 10 of other forms of NSCLC.
