COMMENT:
==Adenosquamous carcinoma of the lung==
The tumour stains as follows:
{{Main|Adenosquamous carcinoma of the lung}}
POSITIVE: EMA, AE1/AE3.
NEGATIVE: TTF-1, chromogranin A, synaptophysin, CD56, CD45.
 
The morphology would be compatible with small cell carcinoma or basaloid
squamous cell carcinoma
 
The neuroendocrine markers (chromogranin A, synaptophysin, CD56) and the squamoid
markers available (p63, CK5/6) are negative; thus, the tumour is not further classified.
