[The frequency and localization of hematogenic distant metastases of bronchial carcinoma].
We examined on the basis of 289 autopsies the localization and frequency of metastases in 383 patients with bronchogenic carcinoma. In correspondence with the literature the main localisations of metastases were found in liver, suprarenal glands and skeleton. The small cell carcinoma showed the highest metastatic frequency, especially with 65.9% of liver metastases. The evidence of liver metastases in the phase before treatment is very important, because of the frequency of combination of liver metastases with metastases of suprarenal glands and skeleton.
