  1. The clinical characteristics of 18 primary PEACs diagnosed in our medical center from 2008 to 2017 were summarized. The levels of these four tumor markers when patient first visit were compared with the upper limit of normal expression ranges, and the multiples were showed in table. The normal expression ranges of these four tumor markers: CEA, 0–5 μg/L; CA199, 0–37 U/mL; CYFRA21-1, 0–7 μg/L; NSE, 0–30 μg/L; All cases were staged according to the pathological tumor/node/metastasis (pTNM) classification (8th edition) of the IASLC
