features, survival, and metastases of pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Patients and Methods A …

Purpose The prognostic value of tumor location in pulmonary adenocarcinoma (ADC) is
controversial. We compared the prognosis and relevant data between central-type ADC (CT …

The aim in this study was to define the pattern of lymph node metastasis according to the
