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展开更多
A 45-year-old man with bronchioloalveolar carcinoma was treated with gefitinib. The most severe side effect was hemorrhagic cystitis but he had a dramatic response.

Early stage bronchioloalveolar carcinoma is usually asymptomatic, especially in the peripheral lung. Rarely, urticaria has been described occurring with lung cancer, usually small-cell lung cancer, but no case has been reported of the bronchioloalveolar carcinoma yet. We report here a unique and initial urticaria on a patient, lasting for 6 months, who finally was diagnosed as early stage bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (TlaNOM0). After treatment of surgery, the symptom of urticaria disappeared and did not recur. Therefore, we consider that utricaria is a possibly clinical manifestation in early stage bronchioloalveolar carcinoma.展开更多
