Fig 7 The disease specific disease-free survival analysis indicates that LCNEC cases with stage 1 disease had a significantly poorer prognosis than CLCC cases with stage 1 disease. (LCNEC = large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma; CLCC = classic large cell carcinoma.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 2004 77, 1891-1895DOI: (10.1016/j.athoracsur.2003.10.119)
Fig 8 The disease specific disease-free survival analysis indicates that LCNEC cases without adjuvant chemotherapy had a significantly poorer prognosis than CLCC cases without adjuvant chemotherapy. (LCNEC = large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma; CLCC = classic large cell carcinoma.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 2004 77, 1891-1895DOI: (10.1016/j.athoracsur.2003.10.119)
