ABSTRACT
Non-small cell lung cancer has a poor prognosis. Many patients who were proved to have none lymph node metastasis still relapse after operation. It may be caused by micrometastases which can′t be detected by conventional pathologic technique. Recently immunocytochemistry and moleculer methods are used to detect micrometastases in the peripheral blood, bone marrow or lymph node near the tumor. But the standard and reliable methods need to be developed and the clinical significance of micrometastases need to be discussed.
