The distribution of skeletal metastases in prostatic and lung cancer was examined to test the hypothesis that prostatic carcinoma spreads by a unique hematogenous route. Abnormal technetium-99m methylene diphosphonate bone scans were retrospectively reviewed in 71 patients with prostatic carcinoma and 41 patients with lung cancer comparing patterns of osseous involvement. Differences in the distribution of lesions were not significant. It is concluded that prostatic carcinoma does not metastasize to specific skeletal sites by a singular hematogenous pathway.
研究了前列腺癌和肺癌骨转移的分布情况，以验证前列腺癌通过独特血行途径转移的假说。回顾性分析了71例前列腺癌患者和41例肺癌患者的99m锝亚甲基二膦酸盐骨扫描异常情况，比较骨受累模式。病变分布差异无统计学意义。结论是，前列腺癌并非通过单一血行途径转移至特定骨骼部位。
