[Malignant vascular tumors of the lung (cytologic and histologic parallels)].
Analysis of 78 observations (including 6 of the author's own) of primary malignant vascular tumours of the lung, showed that these tumours had no characteristic clinicoroentgenological features; in this connection the question of their preoperative cytological diagnosis is of importance. The retrospective collations of cytological and histological data in 8 patients made it possible to establish criteria of cytological diagnosis of similar tumours. For the first time in the Soviet literature a suggestion was put forward that basing on the data of cytological investigations it is possible in a number of cases to give a detailed verification of tumours of the lung with presumable indication to hemangioendothelioma, angiosarcoma, or hemangiopericytoma. Metastases of malignant vascular tumours of other localizations in the lung are of analogous cytological pattern. correct diagnosis of primary of metastatic tumour can be made only if all the complex of clinico-roentgenological and cytological data are taken into account.
