Abstract
The new adenocarcinoma classification has significant impact on recurrence in node-negative lung adenocarcinoma 3 cm or smaller. Patients with the micropapillary/solid predominant pattern have a significantly higher risk for recurrence. For tumors 2 cm or smaller, presence of the solid pattern was a prognostic factor for higher probability of recurrence. This information is useful for patient stratification for adjuvant therapy.
