Efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy for lung adenocarcinoma patients with positive pleural lavage cytology findings.
OBJECTIVES Positive pleural lavage cytology (PLC) findings are considered to be predictive of a poor prognosis in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We investigated the clinical benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy for lung adenocarcinoma patients with positive PLC findings. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of lung adenocarcinoma patients who underwent tumour...
متن کاملFive-Year Survivors of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients with Positive Pleural Lavage Cytology
Background: The pleural lavage cytology (PLC) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients has been reported as a significant prognostic factor. The aim of this study is to clarify the clinicopathological characteristics of 5-year survivors of patients with positive PLC. Methods: Among 401 resected NSCLC patients, 30 (7.48%) patients with positive PLC were reviewed retrospectively. Results: ...
متن کاملShould three slide-touch print cytology replace pleural lavage cytology for detection of pleural micrometastases in cases of bronchogenic carcinoma?
A prospective study, including 112 patients, designed to estimate the sensitivity and specificity of slide-touch and pleural lavage cytology for diagnosis of pleural micrometastases in operable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Histopathologically, excised tumors showed P0 in 22 patients (19%), P1 in 44 patients (39%), P2 in 32 patients (29%), P3 in 14 patients (13%). Cytological examination ...
متن کاملContinuous pleural lavage may decrease postoperative morbidity in patients undergoing thoracotomy for stage 2 thoracic empyema.
OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of postoperative continuous pleural lavage (PCPL) after thoracotomy for the treatment of stage 2 pleural empyema in relation to postoperative length of stay and morbidity. METHODS Stage 2 pleural empyema was diagnosed with computer tomography. Conservative treatment including antibiotics and pleural aspiration was introduced. 89 patients treated for stage 2 pleu...
متن کاملIntraoperative pleural lavage cytology is an independent prognostic indicator for staging non-small cell lung cancer.
OBJECTIVES For patients undergoing lung resection for cancer, macroscopic evidence of metastasis is clearly associated with adverse prognosis. However, less is known about the significance of tumor cells detected by using tests such as pleural lavage cytology. To ascertain the frequency and quantify the effect of this finding on survival, we performed a prospective study of intraoperative pleur...
