In last decades an increase of new cases of lung cancer has been observed. The global prognosis based on the analysis of the increase rate of new cases envisages that total number of lung cancer patients will reach 2 millions at the end of the XXth century. In Poland alone, the number of new cases can come up to 50,000 a year in the second decade of the XXIst century. Respectively, the number of surgically treated patients with lung cancer increases. In literature, controversial opinions on the results of surgical therapy of patients with lung cancer younger than 40 years can be found. Some authors report unsatisfactory results. The others do not confirm differences due to the age of operated patients. We present our observations based on the clinical analysis of 46 patients below 40 years of age treated surgically because of lung cancer. The aim of this analysis is the evaluation of the long-term results of surgical therapy in this group of patients. This is the first Polish report on this problem. |
