Prognostic Analysis in Patients of Lung Cancer with Brain Metastasis under Surgical Removal

肺癌併腦轉移經開顱手術之預後評估

摘要


The outcome and prognostic factor in postcraniotomy patients with brain metastasis from lung cancer in south Taiwan were evaluated. There were evaluated. There were 21 males and 12 females, with ages ranging from 35 to 72 years (mean, 56.4 years). The survival rate was determined from the date or craniotomy and was evaluated by the Kaplan-Meler product limit method. Iimit method. In the univariate analysis survival was significantly affected by systemic metastasis (P=0.0109), brain radiotherapy (P=0.0121) and chest radiotherapy (P=0.0361). Preoperative and postoperative Karnofaky scores were evaluated using the paired t-test and the neurological condition, as evaluated by Karnorsky scores, significantly improved after craniotomy (P<0.001). We concluded that an aggressive craniotomy and radiotherapy improves the quality of life and survival rate, especially in those patients with solitary brain metastasis and no extracranial metastasls.
