A Clinical Analysis and Follow-Up Study of Five Hundred and Two Cases of Carcinoma of the Lung

WILLIAM FRANCIS RIENHOFF JR. M.D., F.C.C.P.1

1 Associate Professor of Surgery, Johns Hopkins University.

An otherwise fatal disease, primary carcinoma of the lung, can be satisfactorily treated by surgical removal of the entire organ. Surgical measures short of total pneumonectomy are not efficacious. Postoperative mortality and longevity are at least as good as, if not better than, the postoperative results following the surgical treatment of carcinoma of other organs.
