Spontaneous cancer regression is rare, and particularly rare for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The pathogenesis of spontaneous regressions is poorly understood, but of interest to many patients and providers. The infrequency of spontaneous regression makes it a challenging phenomenon to understand and study. We present a case of biopsy-proven NSCLC in a 73-year-old man that regressed without treatment.
自发性癌症消退很罕见,对于非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)而言尤其罕见。自发性消退的发病机制尚不清楚,但受到许多患者和医疗服务提供者的关注。自发性消退的罕见性使其成为一个难以理解和研究的现象。我们报告一例经活检证实的73岁男性NSCLC病例,该病例未经治疗即出现消退。
