#935 A Three Tier Grading System Based on Ki-67 Index, Mitotic Count and Necrosis with Cut-Offs Specifically Generated for Lung Neuroendocrine Tumors is Prognostically Effective and Accurate

Introduction: Lung neuroendocrine tumors are catalogued into four categories by the World Health Organization (WHO 2004) classification. Its reproducibility and prognostic efficacy was disputed. The WHO 2010 classification of digestive neuroendocrine neoplasms is based on a Ki-67 index and has proved prognostically effective.
