abstract = {To investigate the early radiological features and survival
of Large Cell Carcinoma (LCC) cases diagnosed in low-dose
computed tomography (LDCT) screening trials.Two radiologists
jointly reviewed the radiological features of
screen-detected LCCs observed in NLST, ITALUNG, and LUSI
trials between 2002 and 2016, comprising a total of 29,744
subjects who underwent 3-5 annual screening LDCT
examinations. Survival or causes of death were established
according to the mortality registries extending more than 12
years since randomization.LCC was diagnosed in 30 (4 $\%)$
of 750 subjects with screen-detected lung cancer (LC),
including 15 prevalent and 15 incident cases. Three
additional LCCs occurred as interval cancers during the
screening period. LDCT images were available for 29 cases of
screen-detected LCCs, and 28 showed a single, peripheral,
and well-defined solid nodule or mass with regularly smooth
(39 $\%),$ lobulated (43 $\%),$ or spiculated (18 $\%)$
margins. One case presented as hilar mass. In 9 incident
LCCs, smaller solid nodules were identified in prior LDCT
examinations, allowing us to calculate a mean Volume
Doubling Time (VDT) of 98.7 ± 47.8 days. The overall
five-year survival rate was 50 $\%,$ with a significant (p =
0.0001) difference between stages I-II (75 $\%$ alive) and
stages III-IV (10 $\%$ alive).LCC is a fast-growing neoplasm
that can escape detection by annual LDCT screening. LCC
typically presents as a single solid peripheral nodule or
mass, often with lobulated margins, and exhibits a short
VDT. The 5-year survival reflects the stage at diagnosis.},
