Results. 1- and 3-year survival was 69% and 27.6% (60.9% and 30.4% for males; 27.6% and 16.7% for females). 3-year survival for the first primary cancer was 37.5% in urological cancers, 14.3% in gastrointestinal, 37.5% in airway cancers and 16.7% in other cancer cases. Survival by stage of 2PLC was as follows: IA-B st. – 33.3%, IIA-B st. – 28.6%, respectively. No patients survived for 3 years with IIIA-IV st. of 2 PLC. By morphology of 2 PLC there were adenocarcinoma cases in 14.3%, squamous cell carcinoma in 50.0%. One patient with small cell 2 PLC has lived so far. Conclusions. 1. The site of the first primary tumor is not a significant prognostic factor for surgical outcomes of the second primary lung cancer (p > 0.5). 2. Statistically significant survival rates did not differ by gender and histological type of 2PLC. 3. A statistically significant survival difference was obtained only between the patients with IA-IIB st. and IIIA-IV st. of 2PLC (p = 0.0013). |
