“…The earliest efforts at screening were from the analysis of mass chest radiography (CXR) screenings from the population of an individual city [2][3][4][5][6][7]. These studies reported lung cancer incidences from 0.01% to 0.35%.…”

The result of a lung cancer screening program should be fewer lung cancer-specific deaths in the screened population. Studies evaluating chest imaging as a screening tool for lung cancer have not shown a reduction in lung cancer-specific mortality to date. The ability of institutions using chest imaging to meet the criteria for successful screening programs has also been debated. Contentious issues include the presence of an overdiagnosis bias, the ability to find preclinical disease at a curable point in time, the amount of pseudodisease identified, and the cost-effectiveness of screening programs. Current guidelines remain vague as randomized trials are being completed and technologic advances are occurring. The ultimate face of a successful lung cancer screening program is yet to be defined.

“…O Philadelphia Pulmonary Neoplasm Research Project (PPNRP) (21)(22)(23) e o Veterans Administration Trial (VAT) (24) não conseguiram demonstrar qualquer benefício do rastreamento, enquanto o TMGS (Tokyo Metropolitan Government Study) (25) e o SLLCS (South London Lung Cancer Study) (26) sugeriram alguma melhora na taxa de sobrevida, mas a mortalidade específica não foi adequadamente avaliada. Os resultados desanimadores no PPNRP (21)(22)(23) e no VAT (24) devem-se, pelo menos em parte, à idade avançada da população estudada, ao grande número de co-morbidades, menor potencial de ressecabilidade e maior mortalidade perioperatória (30) (Tabela 1).…”

“…O TMGS (25) e o SLLCS (26) são grandes estudos não-controlados, cujo acompanhamento foi feito mediante controles radiológicos periódicos. Ambos demonstraram alto percentual de ressecabilidade e animadoras taxas de sobrevida, sobretudo quando comparadas, retrospectivamente, com controles contemporâneos de outros grupos de pacientes (Tabela 1).…”

“…PERSPECTIVA HISTÓRICA Dez estudos prospectivos, utilizando controles radiológi-cos periódicos, com ou sem exame citopatológico do escarro, foram conduzidos entre 1951 e 1975 (21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29) . Exceto no Tokyo Metropolitan Government Study (TMGS) (25) , foram incluídos apenas indivíduos do sexo masculino.…”

O carcinoma brônquico é, de todos, o de maior letalidade, responsabilizando-se, anualmente, por maior número de óbitos do que aqueles decorrentes do câncer do cólon, mama e próstata juntos. Seguindo seu curso natural, mais de 50% dos pacientes têm metástases a distância e somente 20 a 25% são potencialmente ressecáveis no momento do diagnóstico, com perspectiva de sobrevida em cinco anos de apenas 14%.

This paper reports results of hematoporphyrin derivative based on photodynamic therapy (PDT) of 24 lung cancer lesions in 21 patients that were followed at least three months. Three of 24 lesions exhibited complete remission and 20 of 24 lesions exhibited a response to PDT. Tumors in twenty of twenty-one patients exhibited visually discernible hematoporphyrin derivative fluorescence upon irradiation with the 514-nm line from an argon ion laser. There were no severe complications due to PDT. The hematoporphyrin derivative, argon iin laser pumped dye laser (rhodamine B) system,and quartz fiber we used in this clinical series were all made in the People's Republic of China.
