title: [Clinical and evolutive characteristics of bronchial cancers discovered by systematic X-ray examinations (author's transl)].
abstract: The characteristics of broncho-pulmonary cancers discovered during systematic X-ray were studied over an 11 year period by comparison with cancers discovered through their symptoms. The operability of first group patients was definitely superior (62.5% against 36.7%y and so was the 5 year survival (18.7 against 5.5%). These differences are statistically significant and should be remembered, before the results of extensive anglo-saxon surveys be known, about the value of X-ray detection of bronchial cancer--at least in high risk patients.
