Abstract:
Micrometastasis of carcinoma is one of the most significant pieces of evidence for molecular staging.Detection of micrometastasis of non-small-cell lung cancer plays a significant role in staging precisely,guiding treatment and predicting the prognosis of patients.This review is focused on the latest developments of markers such as CK19,LUNX,CEA mRNA,oncogene and anti-oncogene.The sites about micrometastasis of non-small-cell lung cancer are usually reported in lymph node and bone marrow,rarely in pleural cavity and increasingly in peripheral blood.
