In most cases of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), patients only express one type of gene mutation, each gene mutation population has different clinicopathological features, and each is expressed differently in different regions of the population. At present, there are few studies on multiple driver genes and clinicopathological features of the population in Hunan, China.
Methods: From February 2016 to December 2017, the Department of Geriatric Respiratory Medicine of Xiangya Hospital of Central South University diagnosed 113 cases of NSCLC. Genetic testing of next-generation sequencing (NGS) was completed, and it conformed to the inclusion criteria. All cases were pathologically confirmed as NSCLC, with the tumor staging being based on the 8th edition of TNM classification. 
Results: In this study, we included a total of 113 NSCLC cases, including 78 males and 35 females. Histological distributions were mainly adenocarcinoma (ADC, 78.76%) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC, 21.24%). We found 71 cases had gene-mutations. There was one concurrent mutation of ALK and ROS1, one concurrent mutation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and BRAF, one concurrent mutation of EGFR and MET, one concurrent mutation of MET and BRAF, and one concurrent mutation of EGFR and KRAS; there were two cases of concurrent mutation of EGFR and ERBB2. The distribution of each of the mutated genes was as follows: EGFR, 62.82%; ALK, 8.97%; ROS1, 5.13%; MET, 5.13%; ERBB2, 5.13%; RET, 0.00%; BRAF, 2.56%; KRAS, 10.26%. Our study found that in patients with EGFR mutation, the mutation rate of males was 32.05%, and the rate in females was 68.57% (P0.05); the mutation rate of ADC was 52.81% and in SCC was 8.33% (P},
