A small group of cases of bronchogenic carcinoma in situ or with associated early invasion have been reviewed. The results of cytologic examination were positive in approximately 73 per cent of cases and bronchoscopic biopsy was positive in 46 per cent. Although the condition of the patients has not been followed sufficiently long for thorough evaluation, highly favorable results of treatment in these early lesions are indicated.
