Abstract:
This study was aimed to reveal the relationship of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC) syndromes and metastasis, in order to provide new scientific basis for syndrome differentiation, treatment and prognostic assessment, which proved the scientificity and feasibility of internal and external inspection. A total of 60 BAC cases were divid-ed into two groups according to the syndrome of deficiency and excess. Another 30 cases of benign pulmonary nod-ules were simultaneous collected in the physical examination as control group. The quality of life (FACT-L) was scored one day before operation for patients in each group. The thoracoscopic technique was used in the biopsy of targeted tissues, in order to reveal indicators related with metastasis. The results showed that the comparison of FACT-L score of patients from two syndromes of BAC and that of the control group indicated that the score of physi-ological state, social/family condition, emotional condition, functional situation, additional situation and total score of the previous one were obviously higher than the latter one (P < 0.01). And the score of patients in the deficiency syndrome group was higher than that of the excess group with statistical significance (P< 0.01). The comparison be-tween the tumor tissues of patients from two syndromes of BAC and the benign pulmonary nodules showed that the VEGF, MMP-2, MMP-9 of the previous one were higher than the latter one (P< 0.01). The comparison between two syndromes showed that all indexes of the deficiency syndrome were higher than the excess syndrome (P < 0.01). It was concluded that syndromes of BAC was related with metastasis.
