Christina S. Baik, MD, MPH, Colin C. Pritchard, MD, PhD, Keith D. Eaton, MD, PhD, Laura Q. Chow, MD  Journal of Thoracic Oncology  Volume 8, Issue 1, Pages e6-e7 (January 2013) DOI: /JTO.0b013e d49 Copyright © 2012 International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Terms and Conditions

2 FIGURE 1 Representative hematoxylin and eosin stained sections of SCC and ADC tumors from each case. A, Case 1: epidural mass (SCC), (B) case 1: pericardial fluid (ADC), (C) case 2: supraclavicular mass (SCC), and (D) case 2: pleural fluid (ADC). SCC, squamous cell carcinoma; ADC, adenocarcinoma.

3 FIGURE 2 Molecular testing results. A, An EGFR L858R mutation was identified in the SCC in patient 1 by melting curve analysis with a mutation-specific probe (black trace, small peak at ~63°C). B, A 15-base pair EGFR exon 19 deletion was identified in the SCC of patient 2 by capillary electrophoresis (peaks at ~102 base pair). Adenocarcinoma lesions from each patient shared the same EGFR mutation as the SCC component (data not shown). SCC, squamous cell carcinoma.
