Abstract

The differential diagnosis between pulmonary adenocarcinoma and several benign mimics can be a formidable challenge for the surgical pathologist, particularly in frozen sections and in small biopsies but sometimes in surgical specimens as well. In this review we will provide a practical guide to help the pathologist facing these problematic cases.
