'''Lung adenocarcinoma with EGFR rearrangement''' is a molecular subtype of [[lung adenocarcinoma]].
'''Lung carcinoma with EGFR mutation''' is a molecular subtype of [[lung carcinoma]]. Morphologically, these tumours are typically [[adenocarcinoma]]s.

*Testing indicated in [[non-small cell carcinoma]], [[adenosquamous carcinoma of the lung]], as well as [[lung adenocarcinoma]].
**Testing done together with ALK.
