Twenty-four patients over the age of 70 with small cell cancer of the lung were studied retrospectively. Ninety-two per cent of these patients had other concurrent medical disorders; 58 per cent had cardiac disease and 25 per cent had a second malignancy. The median survival of 20 treated patients was ten months, and the one-year survival was 30 per cent. Such elderly patients with multiple medical problems can benefit from combination chemotherapy.
对24例70岁以上的肺小细胞癌患者进行了回顾性研究。这些患者中有92%同时患有其他内科疾病；58%患有心脏病，25%患有第二种恶性肿瘤。20例接受治疗的患者的中位生存期为10个月，一年生存率为30%。这类患有多种内科疾病的老年患者可从联合化疗中获益。
