Primary mucinous carcinomas of the lung: Clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes
Conclusions: IMA is rarely diagnosed on needle biopsies due to insufficient tissue. They mimic pneumonia on imaging, thus delaying diagnosis. EGFR mutations, ALK, and ROS1 translocations are usually negative making them ineligible for tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Response to chemotherapy is modest. (Source: Lung India)
