    Abstract:
    Eighty-two patients with lung cancer confirmed by cytology and/or histology were treated by bronchial artery chemotherapy infusion. There were 61 males and 21 females. The ages ranged from 30 to 75 years with an average of 54.6. Histologic types were 48 squamous cell carcinomas (58.5%), 20 adenocarcinomas (24.4%), and 14 undifferentiated small cell carcinomas (17.1%). TNM classification showed 28 Stage IIIa, 32 Stage IIIb and 22 Stage IV. Sixty-nine patients were treated by Cis-platinum combined with cyclophosphamide (84.1%). The results showed that 20 patients had complete response (24.4%), 28 partial response (34.1%), 25 stability (30.5%), 8 progression (9.8%) and 1 died (1.2%). Ten patients underwent lung resection after infusion of drugs. The factors influencing prognosis and complications are discussed.
