Long-term survival in bronchogenic carcinoma
J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg.
1975 Oct.
Abstract
In this report, we shall review the clinical and pathological features of 64 patients who survived 10 years or longer after resection for bronchogenic carcinoma. Most of these patients had either adenocarcinoma or bronchioloalveolar carcinoma. None of them had oat cell carcinoma. In many of the long-term survivors, there were pathological findings generally considered to indicate a poor chance for survival. Thus we believe that curative resection for bronchogenic carcinoma should be attempted whenever feasible to offer the patient every hope of long-term survival.
