对2385例经临床证实的肺癌患者进行了回顾性研究。尸检发生率为3.3%。大多数患者出现在第七个十年。年龄分布24-94岁,平均63岁。4种主要组织学类型(腺癌37.3%、鳞癌33.4%、小细胞癌13.7%、大细胞癌14.7%)占99.1%。在这四种类型中,腺癌是最常见的组织学类型,特别是对女性来说,近年来腺癌的发病率有所上升。在许多富裕国家都观察到并报道了这一趋势。在香港,中国女性罹患腺癌的几率非常高。
A retrospective study of 2385 Chinese patients with proven carcinoma of lung was performed. The autopsy incidence was 3.3%. Most patients presented in the seventh decade. The age distribution was 24-94 yrs with a mean age of 63 yrs. The four major histologic types (37.3% of adenocarcinoma, 33.4% of squamous cell carcinoma, 13.7% of small cell carcinoma and 14.7% of large cell carcinoma) accounted for 99.1% of the cases. Among the four, adenocarcinoma was the most common histologic type, particularly for females and there has been an increase in the incidence of adenocarcinoma in recent years. This trend has been observed and reported in many affluent countries. In Hong Kong, the frequency of adenocarcinoma among Chinese females is exceptionally high.
