The aim of this study is to evaluate characteristics in lung cancer patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Among 966 lung cancer patients admitted to our division over a period of 24 years, 73 patients were diagnosed as having COPD. There were 68 (93.2%) men and 5 women; of the tumors 43 (58.9%) were squamous cell carcinomas. Although 41 (56.2%) patients had stage IA-IIIA, only 11 (15.1%) had surgery. Coexistence of COPD was proved to be a prognostic factor (p=0.0451). Adequate palliative care to provide quality survival would be the primary goal of therapy for lung cancer patients with COPD.
本研究旨在评估合并慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)的肺癌患者的特征。在24年间收治于我科的966例肺癌患者中,73例被诊断患有COPD。其中男性68例(93.2%),女性5例;肿瘤类型中43例(58.9%)为鳞状细胞癌。尽管41例(56.2%)患者处于IA-IIIA期,但只有11例(15.1%)接受了手术。COPD的并存被证明是一个预后因素(p=0.0451)。为合并COPD的肺癌患者提供高质量生存的充分姑息治疗将是治疗的主要目标。
