[Polychemotherapy for inoperable bronchial carcinomas (author's transl)].
In the therapy of carinomas the best results had been achieved by radical operation. The operable carcinomas, especially the bronchial carcinomas, couldn't be found among clinical patients in such amount as we would like. X-ray therapy in the manner of high voltage radiation shows remarkable results, which is now common knowledge. For the most inoperable carcinomas only a general therapy may give certain positive therapeutical aspects. The own results with polychemotherapy in 847 patients with bronchogenic carcinomas or lung-metastases in advanced stages are shown. In spite of all limitations the polychemotherapy shows possibilities and some certain changes for symptomatic help in desperate cases.
