Description
Zihan Wang and four colleagues reviewed in 2026 invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma, a rare lung cancer whose jelly-like growth often looks like pneumonia on scans. Its vague symptoms and spread to many spots make it hard to spot early. It can be mistaken for an infection or for several distinct tumours. The review gathers what is known about its course, its scans, its tissue look, its gene changes, and how it responds to treatment.
Next to the usual form of this cancer, this type carries more KRAS gene changes and certain gene fusions. The classic EGFR changes are rarer in it. Spread through air spaces inside the lung needs care, and doctors need large tissue samples with full gene testing. Surgery serves early disease well. Drug therapy for late disease stays hard, and the role of immune therapy is unclear. The authors call for studies built for this type alone.
