Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship of pathological types of lung cancer with sex, age, site, and clinical diagnosis. Methods The data of 1 310 patients with lung cancer diagnosed with fibrobronchoscopy, was retrospectively analyzed. Results ①The preliminary clinical diagnosed lung cancers which were comfirmed by fibrobronchoscopic biopsy later were mainly small cell lung cancer. ②The percentage of squamous carcinoma was significantly greater in male (78.0%) than in female (49.7%), but the percentage of adenocarcinoma was significantly higher in female (38.1%) than in male (13.1%)(P<0.0001). ③Among the patients with lung cancer, 53.7% was from 40 to 59 years old and 40.2% over 60. The average age of male patients (56.9 years old) was significantly greater than that of female (51.1 years old) (P<0.0001). ④ The average age of patients with squamous carcinoma and adenocarcinoma was greater in male than in female, but that with small cell carcinoma and squamous carcinoma was greater in female than in male. ⑤The percentage of male with lung cancer in the left lung (37.3%) was greater than that of female (26.0%), but the female had lung cancer in the right lung (59.7%) while male had (49.3%). The left and right upper lobe was more (45.4%) in male, but the right upper and lower lobe was more(43.3%) in female. Conclusion ①The fibrobronchoscopic examination is very important in the diagnosis of lung cancer. ②The pathological types and sites of lung cancer is different in different sex and age, which provide the exact bases for medical and surgical treatment for lung cancer.
