[The histopathological study of the bronchopulmonary carcinoma].
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the study is to reveal the predominant histological types of the bronchopulmonary carcinomas diagnosed at the Pneumology Hospital in the period of 1st January 1996-December 31 1998.


METHODS
The study enclosed 196 cases of CBP, representing 174 men and 22 women with ages between 31 and 78 of years. The studied specimens were pieces of bronchoscopical and surgical biopsies, material obtained from the pneumological clinic.


CONCLUSIONS
The histological analysis revealed the increasing number of the bronchopulmonary carcinoma, mainly to men with mean age of sixty and the predominance of the epidermoid carcinoma (137) and a reduced number of cases of adenocarcinomas (31) and undifferentiated carcinomas (28). The knowing of the histological type of the CBP is very important in the calculation of the prognosis.


CONCLUSIONS
Our study demonstrate the predominance of CBP at men (174), with ages between 55 and 65 years (127 cases) and similar incidences for all histological types of CBP comparative with other territories.
