Abstract
P40/CK5 double stain has higher specificity, PPV, NPV, and overall accuracy than P63/CK5 double stain in the diagnosis of lung SQCC. TTF-1/Napsin-A double staining is a valuable marker with high specificity, PPV, and diagnostic accuracy in diagnosing lung ADC. The usage of P40/CK5 and TTF-1/Napsin-A as a panel can be recommended for characterizing non-small cell carcinoma (NSCC) of the lung and for conserving tissue for molecular testing.
