Superficial Endobronchial Lung Cancer: Radiologic-Pathologic Correlation
OBJECTIVE To analyze the plain chest radiographic and CT findings of superficial endobronchial lung cancer and to correlate these with the findings of histopathology. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study involved 19 consecutive patients with pathologically proven lung cancer confined to the bronchial wall. Chest radiographs and CT scans were reviewed for the presence of parenchymal abnormalities,...
متن کاملprostate-specific antigen density and gleason score predict adverse pathologic features in patients with clinically localized prostate cancer
conclusions psa, psa density, and gleason score should be considered together in order to more accurately predict the adverse pathologic features of prostate cancer. methods we conducted a cross-sectional study of 105 patients with localized prostate cancer who underwent radical prostatectomy between 2006 and 2013. we recorded gleason scores and psa levels, in addition to the results of patholo...
متن کاملCan exhaled NO fraction predict radiotherapy-induced lung toxicity in lung cancer patients?
BACKGROUND A large increase in nitric oxide fraction (FeNO) after radiotherapy (RT) for lung cancer may predict RT-induced lung toxicity. METHODS In this study, we assessed the relationships between FeNO variations and respiratory symptoms, CT scan changes or dose volume histogram (DVH) parameters after RT. We measured FeNO before RT, 4, 5, 6, 10 weeks, 4 and 7.5 months after RT in 65 lung ca...
متن کاملClinical, pathologic, and biologic features associated with BRAF mutations in non-small cell lung cancer.
PURPOSE BRAF mutations are found in a subset of non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC). We examined the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of patients with NSCLC harboring BRAF mutations. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Using DNA sequencing, we successfully screened 883 patients with NSCLC for BRAF mutations between July 1, 2009 and July 16, 2012. Baseline characteristics and treatment outcomes...
متن کاملMolecular, pathologic, and clinical features of early-onset endometrial cancer: identifying presumptive Lynch syndrome patients.
PURPOSE A woman with early-onset endometrial cancer (EC) may represent the "sentinel" cancer event in a Lynch syndrome kindred. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of Lynch syndrome in a series of young-onset EC, and to identify molecular, clinical, and pathologic features that may alert clinicians to the presence of this disorder. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Patients with EC, ages <...
