Câncer de pulmão: histologia, estádio, tratamento e sobrevida

Abstract: Of the various histological types, the most common was squamous cell carcinoma and the least common was large cell carcinoma. Most cases presented advanced stages at the moment of diagnosis, and less than 30% of the cases presented early stages. This accounts for the low survival rate and the small number of patients submitted to surgical treatment alone, the majority being submitted to chemotherapy alone.

“…The least common histological type was large cell carcinoma, a finding that is consistent with the literature. (3,4,9,11,12) One group of authors reported an increase in adenocarcinoma incidence, which can be higher than the incidence of squamous carcinoma. (18) According to Shields, (19) 30-50% are adenocarcinomas, 20-35% are squamous carcinomas, and 15-35% are small cell carcinomas.…”

“…O perfil epidemiológico dos pacientes com câncer de pulmão em nosso estudo coincide com trabalhos prévios, com predominância das seguintes características: sexo masculino, faixa etária média acima de 60 anos, fumantes [15][16][17] , tipo histológico adenocarcinoma, e estadiamento IIIB e IV nos casos de CPNPC [16][17][18][19] epidermoide, mas ambos estão relacionados ao tabagismo 20,21 . Os sintomas pré-tratamento mais frequentemente relatados pelos nossos pacientes foram os respiratórios.…”

“…Isso deve estar associado ao fato de que aproximadamente 75% dos pacientes acometidos são diagnosticados em estádios clínicos avança-dos da doença (IIIB e IV), o que acaba impedindo a aplicação do tratamento curativo (ACS, 2015;Bareschino et al, 2011;Farina et al, 2011;Gatzemeier et al, 2007;Novaes et al, 2008;Qi et al, 2015;Wang, 2014).…”
