  • Title: [Adrenal cortical function in the combined treatment of lung cancer].
    Author: Kokina LP, Medvedev VN, Firsova PP.
    Journal: Vopr Onkol; 1975; 21(3):7-10. PubMed ID: 1130023.
    Abstract:
    Ninety five patients with pulmonary cancer were investigated. It was found that in lung cancer a correlation of total 17-ketosteroids and 17-oxycorticosteroids is changed on account of decreased androgenic hormones and increased glucocorticoid hormones. A response to the operative trauma is not the same in different objects. Following radiotherapy in most patients a reliable inhibition of the glucocorticoid function of the adrenal cortex was observed.
