OBJECTIVES: To collect data on the clinical characteristics, pathologic presentation, and prognosis of @entity1 with @entity2 . METHODS: From September 24, 2008 to June 3, 2014, 95 @entity1 were hospitalized at the Shanghai Chest Hospital for the treatment of @entity2 . We retrospectively collected @entity1 gender, age, smoking history, time of initial diagnosis, diagnostic methods, @entity5 location, pathohistological subtype, @entity5 size, @entity2802 stage, immunohistochemical results, subsequent treatments, and @entity1 survival. RESULTS: Of the 95 @entity1 included in this study, 80 were male and 15 were female. Median @entity1 age was 64 years (range: 43-80 years). There were 29 cases of @entity189 , one case of @entity7468 , six cases of @entity189 , and six cases of @entity6962 . The other 53 cases were not subtyped. The median survival was 11.54 months (range: 0.9-100.9 months). 1-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year survival was 32%, 30%, 25%, and 21%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that @entity5 size, stage, T1+T2 vs T3+T4 stage, N stage, and M stage were prognostic factors for survival. Multivariate regression analysis showed that T stage and lymph node @entity3 were independent prognostic factors. CONCLUSION: @entity2 is an uncommon, aggressive @entity5 . T1+T2 vs T3+T4 stage and lymph node @entity3 were independent prognostic factors. Our results underscore the importance of early detection and early diagnosis. Effective treatments for this disease are lacking.
