Clinical value of the detection of EGFR gene mutations in pleural effusion cell blocks among patients with non-small-cell lung cancer
Objective: To evaluate the clinical value of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) detection in pleural effusion cell blocks among patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: From July 2016 to September 2018, EGFR gene mutations in 40 lung tumor tissue samples and pleural fluid samp...
