[Morphine combined with marcaine in long-term epidural analgesia in patients with Pancoast's syndrome caused by bronchogenic carcinoma of the apex of the lung].
The long-term, epidural administration of morphine and marcaine (bupivacaine) in 12 patients suffering from bronchogenic carcinoma of the pulmonary apex and consequent Pancoast's syndrome has been examined. In 75% of cases the technique provided satisfactory results and the administration system was well tolerated by the patient.
