[Late results of the combined treatment of small-cell lung cancer].
The paper discusses an experience with combined treatment of 104 cases of small-cell lung cancer which included surgery. Small size of tumor matched by absence of regional and distant metastases was the major indication for surgery. All patients received chemoradiation treatment; 82 of them were followed up. Mean survival of operated patients was 35.5 months, and three-, five- and ten-year survival rates--36, 27 and 19%, respectively. Surgery appears to play a role in treatment of small-cell lung cancer, alongside with chemotherapy and radiation.
