Squamous cell carcinoma of lung

Squamous cell carcinoma of the lung is a malignant epithelial neoplasm of the lower respiratory tract and represents a major histologic subtype of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) Pathologically, the disease is characterized by keratinocyte-like differentiation, marked by intracellular keratinization, intercellular bridging, or squamous biomarker expression
