Abstract: Objective:To describe the trends in tumor histology, gender and age among patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with lung resection. The histology of lung cancer has changed in developed countries, and there is still little information available on the topic for developing countries. Methods:This was a retrospective study of 1,030 patients with NSCLC treated with lung resection between 1986 and 2015 at a university hospital in southern Brazil. Differences in histology, stage, and type of sur… Show more

“…A previous report found that percutaneous CT-guide biopsy had a diagnostic yield of 93%, higher than that of bronchoscopy biopsy at 75%. Additionally, the proportion of the more commonly regarded centrally located squamous cell carcinoma has decreased over the past 30 years, from 49.6% to 34.8% [21]. Moreover, traditionally recognized centrally located squamous cell carcinoma has been reported to consist of more than 62% of squamous cell carcinoma [22].…”

“…The profile found is consistent with what has been identified in recent years in developed countries, as well as in Brazil. Even though it is an underdeveloped country, due to the great efforts in anti-smoking actions, we have seen the altered epidemiology of lung cancer in recent years, with an increase in the incidence of adenocarcinoma and a decrease in squamous cell carcinoma according to Tsukazan et al [ 15 ].…”

“…These data are consistent with those in another cohort study recently published in the JBP. 16 In that study, involving 1,030 patients with NSCLC submitted to surgical treatment between 1986 and 2015, the prevalence of adenocarcinoma in women increased from 11.9%-in the period between 1986 and 1985-to 24.0%-in the period between 2006 and 2015. These data are also consistent with those in the international literature, such as in a cohort study in the USA.…”
