RESUMEN
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) presents the greatest number of identified therapeutic targets, some of which have therapeutic utility. Currently, detecting EGFR, BRAF, KRAS and MET mutations, ALK, ROS1, NTRK and RET translocations, and PD-L1 expression in these patients is considered essential. The use of next-generation sequencing facilitates precise molecular diagnosis and allows the detection of other emerging mutations, such as the HER2 mutation and predictive biomarkers for immunotherapy responses. In this consensus, a group of experts in the diagnosis and treatment of NSCLC selected by the Spanish Society of Pathology and the Spanish Society of Medical Oncology have evaluated currently available information and propose a series of recommendations to optimize the detection and use of biomarkers in daily clinical practice.

The presentation of intracranial metastases from Hodgkin's lymphoma is an infrequent event that worsens clinical outcome. A case of Hodgkin's lymphoma relapse in the cerebellum is described in a 70-year-old woman with a previously treated stage IVA Hodgkin's lymphoma. Diagnostic workup and treatment strategies for central nervous system relapses are reviewed and discussed. A combination of surgery, radiotherapy and occasionally chemotherapy remains the most appropriate approach to intracranial Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Chylothorax, the abnormal accumulation of lymphatic fluid within the pleural space, is an infrequent complication of tumours affecting the mediastinum. The development of chylothorax is extraordinary in association with prostate cancer, although it has been described before. Adequate treatment of malignant chylothorax comprises both a conservative approach, including dietary and hormonal manipulations, and mechanic intercostal drainage that have been demonstrated to be effective in the management of chylothorax of malignant origin. Radiation therapy has been used for the treatment of neoplasic chylothorax but with inconsistent results. We present a new case of chylothorax associated to prostate adenocarcinoma and review the existing evidence for its treatment.
