The World Health Organization (WHO) 2004 classification includes 3 categories of pulmonary preneoplastic lesions, including squamous dysplasia and carcinoma in situ (CIS) for squamous cell carcinoma, atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH) for the majority of adenocarcinomas and diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia (DIPNECH) for carcinoids. The distinction of the 3 grades of squamous dysplasia and CIS is mainly based on the degree by which the basal cell zone is expanded, the degree of cellular atypia and the level of mitoses. The category AAH consists of a proliferation of atypical epithelial cells with Clara cells or type 2 pneumocyte features. They grow along the alveolar septae in a lepidic fashion, sometimes reaching into the terminal bronchioles. In contrast to the newly described adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), AAH is smaller (≤ 5 mm), has a lower cell density and a lower degree of cellular atypia. The putative cancer stem cells of peripheral adenocarcinomas reside in the bronchioloalveolar duct junction, while those of central squamous cell carcinomas are located in the basal cell compartment of the bronchi. This review provides an overview of the current knowledge on preneoplastic lesions of the lungs and their clinical impact.
