Question
Answer
show Metastatic carcinoma  
🗑
show (1) multiple nodules (2) occurs bilaterally  
🗑
show Lung cancer  
🗑
(T or F) The incidence of lung cancer is rising in both males and females.   show
🗑
show 60% are determined to have operable lesions, but only 8 to 15% are cured.  
🗑
Carcinogens in cigarette smoke   show
🗑
(T or F) Passive smoking has not been shown to increase the incidence of lung cancer in non-smokers   show
🗑
Etiology of Lung Cancer   show
🗑
show Asbestos + smoking increases risk of lung cancer by 55 times than that of non-smoking/non-exposed person. There is a 5-fold synergistic effect of asbestos and tobacco.  
🗑
Location of Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lung   show
🗑
show Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lung  
🗑
show Adenocarcinoma of the lung  
🗑
Location of Small cell (oat cell) Carcinoma of the lung   show
🗑
show Small cell (oat cell) carcinoma of the lung  
🗑
show (1) Serotonin (2) ACTH (3) ADH (4) MSH (5) Calcitonin  
🗑
show 50% occur centrally in the major bronchi; others occur more peripherally  
🗑
Type of primary lung tumor that is an undifferentiated tumor that may have squamous or adenocarcinoma differentiation or a mixture of both. Neuroendocrine differentiation also occurs. Electron microscopy is necessary to distinguish these features.   show
🗑
show Tumor typically occurs at the periphery  
🗑
show Bronchioloalveolar Carcinoma  
🗑
Characteristics of Mucinous subtype of Bronchioloalveolar Carcinoma   show
🗑
show Lesions are typically solitary. 5-year survival is 28-69%.  
🗑
Location of Carcinoid tumor of the lung   show
🗑
show Carcinoid tumor of the lung  
🗑
show (1) 5-hydroxytryptophan (2) ACTH (3) MSH (4) MSH (5) Insulin (6) ADH (7) Growth hormone (8) Glucagon (9) Catecholamines (10) Kinins  
🗑
Symptoms of Carcinoid Syndrome   show
🗑
show False. Carcinoid syndrome only occurs when the tumor metastasizes (usually to the liver). Clinical disease due to vasoactive peptides/amines, and serotonin secreted by the tumor.  
🗑
show Pulmonary Hamartoma  
🗑
show Cytology from sputum samples, bronchial brushings/wash, fine needle aspiration. Transbronchial biopsy, mediastinosccopy or Scalene Lymph node biopsy, surgical resection (wedge<lobectomy<pneumonectomy)  
🗑
show Used to obtain cytology samples from centrally located lung tumors. Diagnostic yield is 79-90%  
🗑
When is fine needle aspiration most useful for diagnosis of lung disease?   show
🗑
show Tumor proven by the presence of malignant cells in bronchopulmonary secretions, but not visualized roentgenogrphically or bronchoscopically, or any tumor that cannot be assessed as in retreatment stages.  
🗑
T0 staging of lung cancer   show
🗑
What is T stage would classify a recurrent lung carcinoma occurring after treatment?   show
🗑
show Carcinoma in situ  
🗑
show Tumor size: <3.0 cm. No evidence of invasion to surrounding structures. Must be found proximal to a lobar bronchus at bronchoscopy  
🗑
T2 staging of lung cancer   show
🗑
T3 staging of lung cancer   show
🗑
T4 staging of lung cancer   show
🗑
N0 staging of lung cancer   show
🗑
N1 staging of lung cancer   show
🗑
show Metasis to ipsilateral Mediastinal lymph nodes and subcarinal lymph nodes  
🗑
N3 staging of lung cancer   show
🗑
show 48%  
🗑
5 year survival rates for stage II lung cancer   show
🗑
show 12%  
🗑
5 year survival rate for stage IV lung cancer   show
🗑
Clinical presentation of more centrally located lung tumors   show
🗑
show Typically asymptomatic until tumor becomes necrotic (fever or hemoptysis). Dyspnea when sufficient lung parenchyma is involved.  
🗑
Clinical presentation of intrathoracic spread of lung neoplasm   show
🗑
Superior Vena Cava Syndrome   show
🗑
Pancoast Syndrome   show
🗑
Horner’s Syndrome   show
🗑
Common sites of Metastasis of Lung Cancer   show
🗑
Paraneoplastic syndromes of lung cancer   show
🗑
