Mixed Small Cell/Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer : Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment and Prognosis for Mixed Small Cell / Large Cell Carcinoma.
Sometimes lung cancer exhibits features of both of the above two types. In that case, it is called Mixed Small Cell/Large Cell Lung Cancer.
Some small cell carcinoma patients show a combined subtype, with non-small cell cancer elements admixed with small cell histologically.
Some research shows that these patients (exhibiting Mixed Small Cell/Large Cell Carcinoma) tend to have more localized, sometimes surgically resectable disease and in some cases, a more favorable cancer prognosis.
