Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Tumors: Long-Term Survival After Resection and Prognostic Factors

#598

Introduction: Patients with primary pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors (PNT) are often clinically manifested with cough and hemoptysis. Surgery is the preferred treatment.

Aim(s): In this study, we tried to explore the diagnosis, treatment, survival, and prognostic factors of PNT.

Materials and methods: The clinical data of 74 PNT patients who were treated in our hospital from January 2004 to December 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. Overall survival was calculated from the time of surgery to the time of death. The variables that demonstrated values of p≤0.20 in the univariate analysis were tested using the Cox regression model.
