The presence of micropapillary and solid histologic patterns in lymph node metastases is associated with worse outcomes in patients with advanced nonmucinous lung adenocarcinoma. The presence of micropapillary and solid patterns is associated with a higher incidence of smoking history, tumor necrosis, and tumor spread through air spaces, as well as a higher prevalence of micropapillary or solid patterns in the primary tumor. These histologic patterns are independently associated with shorter overall survival, higher lung cancer-specific cumulative incidence of death, and higher cumulative incidence of recurrence.
Introduction: High-grade histologic patterns are associated with poor prognosis in patients with primary nonmucinous lung adenocarcinoma (ADC). We investigated whether the presence of micropapillary (MIP), solid (SOL), or both pat-terns in lymph node (LN) metastases has prognostic value.Methods: Patients who underwent lobectomy for pathologic stages II to III lung ADC with N1 or N2 LN metastases (N = 360; 2000-2012) were analyzed. We assessed overall survival (OS), lung cancer-specific cumulative incidence of death (LC-CID), and cumula-tive incidence of recurrence (CIR) between patients with and without MIP/SOL patterns in LN metastases. Multivariable Cox regression analysis was used to quantify the association between MIP/SOL patterns and outcomes.Results: MIP and SOL in LN metastases were associated with a higher incidence of smoking history (p = 0.004), tumor necrosis (p = 0.013), and spread of tumor through air spaces (p < 0.0001), a higher prevalence of MIP or SOL in the primary tumor (p < 0.0001), shorter OS (5-y OS, 40% [95% confidence interval or CI: 29%-56%] versus 63% [48%-83%] for no MIP/SOL in LNs, p = 0.03), higher LC -CID (5-y, 43% [29%-56%] versus 14% [4%-29%], p = 0.013), and higher CIR (5-y, 65% [50%-77%] versus 43% [25%-60%], p = 0.057). MIP and SOL in LN metastases were independently associated with poor outcomes: OS (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.81 [95% CI: 1.00-3.29], p = 0.05), LC-CID (HR = 3.10 [1.30-7.37], p = 0.01), and CIR (HR = 2.06 [1.09-3.90], p = 0.026).Conclusions: MIP/SOL histologic patterns in N1 or N2 LN metastases are associated with worse outcomes in patients with stages II to III lung ADC. MIP/SOL histologic patterns in LN metastases can stratify patients with high-risk stages II to III lung ADC.& COPY; 2023 International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer.
