The results of radiotherapy of esophagus cancer in 127 patients are analyzed. It is noted that the life duration of patients depends on the incidence and localization of tumor process. The five-year survival of patients with esophagus cancer localized in the cervical and superthoracal parts of esophagus was 0. in the middle thoracal part was 3,2%, in the lower thoracal part was 11%, in all localizations was 4,7%. The immediate favourable result of radiotherapy was noted in 77% of the patients with esophagus cancer.
Remote metastases were revealed in 178 (60%) op 295 observed patients with lung cancer. The dependence of rate and localization of remote metastases on form histologic structure and sizes of the mitial focus of lung cancer is presented. In 133 (45%) patients, remote metastases are revealed in initial examination suggesting the low-symptom or symptomless course of lung cancer and remote metastases. The data suggested will provide timely diagnosis and will have prognostic importance.
A total of 189 patients, including 180 (95.2%) with tuberculosis and 9 (4.8%) with malignant tumours of the respiratory organs were studied. Twelve people had focal TB, 109 had infiltrative TB, 21 had disseminated TB, 11 had cavernous TB, 25 had fibrotic cavernous TB and 2 had other forms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
