Regarding 249 bronchial asthma patients having been admitted to our division for the recent 9 years, clinical manifestations of 8 bronchial asthma with primary lung cancer (group A; squamous cell carcinoma--5 cases, adenocarcinoma--2 cases, small cell carcinoma--1 case; 3.2% of 249 cases) and 8 asthma patients with extrathoracic malignancy (group B; gastric cancer--3 cases, malignant lymphoma--2 cases, bladder cancer--1 case, laryngeal cancer--1 case, prostatic cancer--1 case) were investigated. In group A, the mean of asthmatic history was 19 years and all cases were associated with respiratory tract infections. Three of 8 patients, were mild type and other 5 were moderate type. In group B, the mean of asthmatic history was 20 years and all cases were involved with respiratory tract infections. Five of 8 patients were mild type and other 3 were moderate type. The mean smoking (Brinkmann) index (1194) in group A was significantly higher than that (166) in 241 asthmatic patients without lung cancer or that (169) in group B. The median survival duration (more than 26 months) of group A patients was significantly lower than that (more than 77 months) of group B. These results suggested that, in many bronchial asthma patients accompanied by primary lung cancer who have adult-typed infectious asthmatic history, smoking exposure and aging are deeply related to the development of lung cancer.
对近9年我院收治的249例支气管哮喘患者,调查了8例合并原发性肺癌的支气管哮喘患者(A组;鳞状细胞癌5例,腺癌2例,小细胞癌1例;占249例的3.2%)及8例合并胸外恶性肿瘤的哮喘患者(B组;胃癌3例,恶性淋巴瘤2例,膀胱癌1例,喉癌1例,前列腺癌1例)的临床表现。A组哮喘病史平均19年,所有病例均合并呼吸道感染。8例患者中3例为轻度,5例为中度。B组哮喘病史平均20年,所有病例均合并呼吸道感染。8例患者中5例为轻度,3例为中度。A组平均吸烟(布林克曼)指数(1194)显著高于241例无肺癌的哮喘患者(166)及B组(169)。A组患者的中位生存时间(超过26个月)显著低于B组(超过77个月)。这些结果提示,在许多伴有原发性肺癌的支气管哮喘患者中,有成人型感染性哮喘病史,吸烟暴露和衰老与肺癌的发生密切相关。
