Lungs were excised, fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin (pH 7.4) for 48 h, cleaved, embedded in paraffin, 4 μm-thick sections were obtained, stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), and examined under light microscopy. Neoplastic cells form aggregates, or tumor nodules were considered metastatic lung lesions.
