Transmission and scanning electron microscopic studies of adenocarcinoma, epidermoid carcinoma, and undifferentiated small cell carcinoma (oat cell carcinoma) of the lung are described and illustrated. This combined study demonstrates some characteristic architectural and ultrastructural changes of the malignant cells valuable for diagnosis and classification of lung tumors. This study also provides a better understanding of the morphology and growth of these common tumors.
