    Author: Braganza JM, Butler EB, Fox H, Hunter PM, Qureshi MS, Samarji W, Vallon AG.
    Journal: Cancer; 1978 Apr; 41(4):1522-5. PubMed ID: 639008.
    Abstract:
    A pseudomesotheliomatous carcinoma of the lung which appeared to be ectopically secreting large quantities of salivary (S) type amylase is described. This unusual variant of adenocarcinoma may mimic a mesothelioma, but is distinguished from mesothelioma by its histiological and histochemical features.
