Multifocal BAC seems to behave differently than other
types of bronchogenic carcinoma. Patients with multifocal
BAC presented with delayed recurrence and slowgrowing
tumors when compared to recurrence from
other types of bronchogenic carcinomas (Fig 3). Furthermore,
the site of recurrence was limited to the transplanted
lung in 88% of the patients with multifocal BAC,
whereas it was always widespread in patients with other
types of bronchogenic carcinoma.
