1 Clinicopathological and biological assessment of lung cancers with pleural dissemination 
Yasuhiko Ohta, MD, Yoko Tanaka, PhD, Takuo Hara, MD, Makoto Oda, MD, Shun-ichi Watanabe, MD, Junzo Shimizu, MD, Yoh Watanabe, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 69, Issue 4, Pages (April 2000) DOI: /S (99)

2 Fig 1 Kaplan-Meier survival plots for 43 lung cancer patients with pleural dissemination who underwent resection of the primary tumor plus parietal pleurectomy. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (99) )

3 Fig 2 Kaplan-Meier survival plots for lung cancer patients with pleural dissemination stratified by operative procedures. The outcome of the patients who underwent pleuropneumonectomy was significantly worse than that of the patients with limited operations. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (99) )

4 Fig 3 Examples of immunohistochemical staining for (A) VEGF and (B) AMFR/gp78. For VEGF, cytoplasmic staining was positive in tumor cells, and weak staining was also found in interstitial epithelial components. AMFR/gp78 antigen was mainly identified in the cell membrane and cytoplasm of tumor cells. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (99) )
