There were lobectomy in 10, lung wedge resection in 3, excision of intraluminal tumor of bronchus in 3, exploratory thoracotomy in 2 cases. No operation death. Pathological examination revealed 14 cases were typical carcinoid tumor and 4 cases were atypical carcinoid tumor. By 2-13 years follow-up . 3 , 5 and 10 years survival rate were 82% , 78%and 70% respectively. Bronchial carcinoid tumor is often confused with small cell carcinoma of lung, the correct diagnosis can be obtained by light microscopic, electron microscopic and immunohistochemistry studies. Those patients accompanied with ectopic-ACTH secretion always have Cushing,s syndrome , resection of tumor can produce gho result. Proper operation method depends on the location of the tumor and patient's extent of cardiac and pulmonary reserve.Atypical carcinoid tumor had high malignancy and poor prognosis. The size of tumor, lymph node involvement and adjuvant therapy seem no definite effect on the patients' survival rate.展开更多

Arnong the 38. 12 had low-malignancy tracheal tumors, 11 had benign tracheal tumors, 14 had low malignancy bronchial tumors and 1 had a benign bronchial tumor. Fifteen operations were perforrned on 12 patients with low-malignancy tracheal tumors, including local resection of the tumor and tracheal wall in 4 and curettage of the tumor plus electrical cauterization in 10. Postoperative radiotherapy was used as an adjuvant treatment in 8 patients with adenocystic carcinoma. Eight patients have survived for more than 5 years and 3 patients have survived for longer than 10 years postoperatively. All 11 patients with benign tumors received curettage of the tumor and were followed up for an average of 6. 5 years. Among them, 9 are still alive. Of the 14 patients with low malignancy bronchial tumors, 5 underwent curettage of the tumor plus electrical cauterization through incision of the main bronchus or intermedial bronchus, and 7 underwent lobectomy or pneumonectomy. The authors conclude that the correct diagnosis rate can be increased by enhancing recognition of this disease and applying tracheal tomography and bronchoscopy.展开更多

In this series, 50. 9% of the cases were complieated with various syndromes, 44. 5 % with myasthenia gravis (MG). Resection rate was correlated with the size and invasion of the tumor. There was significant difference in resection rate among thymoma, thymic carcinoid and thymic carcinoma. The degree of invasion undoubtely influenced on resection. The 3 -,5- and 10- year suvival rate of the thymoma were 82. 7 %, 68. 1% and 40. 0 %, respectively. The prognosis depended on the pathological classification and the severity of the neighbouring invasion, but MG had no significant effect on prognosis. Recurrence and metastasis of the tumor were the main cause of late death.展开更多

The mean time from the discovery of the shadow in the right upper lobe tothe confirmation of the diagnosis was 2 months. All patients underwent the resection of the right upperlobe with the dissection of the right mediastinal lymph nodes, among them, 4 patients had sleeve lobectomy of the right upper lobe. P-TNM staging: 23 cases were in stage- Ⅲ a, 21 cases in stage- Ⅲ b. The fre-quency of the postoperative complications was 20- 4 % (9/44 cases). The 1-year survival rate of all patientswas 61 % (27/44 cases). None of stage - Ⅲ b patients lived longer than 3 years. The postoperative 3-and 5-year survival rates of stage- Ⅲ a cases were 65. 2 % (15/23cases) and 21. 7 % (5/23 cases) respectively. Inthis article, the patients clinical features, the causes of delayed-diagnosis, the operative and postoperativemanagement were discussed. We suggest that the stage- Ⅲ a patients should be given surgical treatment,whereas, for the patients of stage- Ⅲ b, palliative operation was given just for the purpose of reliving thesymptoms.展开更多
