Abstract

Background: Novel histopathological prognostic features for squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of lung, such as tumor budding, mitotic rate, tumor stroma ratio, stroma type, stromal inflammation and necrosis, have been evaluated in the literature. In this study, the prognostic value of multiple morphological features is assessed in lung SCC.
