The aim of this study was to determine if the basal characteristics and survival in younger patients with lung cancer undergoing surgical resection differ from those of older patients. DESIGN Retrospective clinical study....
متن کاملSurvival of patients surgically treated for lung cancer.
A study was done on survival of patients surgically treated for lung cancer from 1995-2001. The average operative rate for 852 patients was 4.8%. In 67 surgically treated patients (54M, 13F), the commonest histological type was squamous cell carcinoma (52.2%) followed by adenocarcinoma (26.9%). The surgical-pathological stage was stage I in 52.2%. Postoperatively, five-year survival was 29%, wi...
