Description
Summary:OBJECTIVE To study the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors for bronchioloalveolar carcinoma. METHODS Clinical data frorr 107 inpatient cases at The Cancer Hospital of Tianjin Medical University, from 1990-2000, were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS The overall 1, 3 and 5-year survival rates were 88.7, 64.8 and 48.6% respectively. The main prognostic factors were tumor diameter （P= 0.022）, bronchial stump （P=0.016）, TNM stage （P=0.000）, T stage （P= 0.002）, N stage （P=0.000） and postoperation radiotherapy （P=0.001）. Cox regression analysis suggested that the TNM stage （P=0.000） and tumor diameter （P=0.015） are independent factors affecting the prognosis. CONCLUSION The overall survival rate of BAC patients was superior to those with other non-small cell lung cancer （NSCLC）. The TN＇M stage and tumor diameter were independent factors affecting the prognosis for BAC
