Abstract:
Objetive To investigate a method of collecting lung cancer cells with bronchofibroscopic biopsy for primary culture and to improve the success rate of primary culture. Methods Thirty lung cancer specimens were obtained through bronchoscopic biopsy for primary culture. The correlation of cancer morphology under bronchofi-broscopy and success rate of primary culture was analyzed. Results Among the lung cancer specimens obtained through bronchoscopic biopsy, primary culture was successful in 17 of 30 cases (56.67%) . The success rate of cauliflower-like tumor mass under bronchofibroscopy was 84.62% (11/13) . The success rate of infiltrating tumor mass under bronchial mucosa with luminal stenosis with or without cristate were 66.67% (2/3) and 37.5%(3/8), respectively. The primary culture of a globular and stiff tumor mass was successful only 1 in 6 cases (16.67%) .Conclusions The primary culture of lung cancer cells obtained from bronchofibroscopic biopsy is simple and effective with a total success rate of 56.67%. Furthermore, the success rate of primary culture is signifi-cantly correlated with the cancer morphology under bronchofibroscopy.
