| Research Abstract |
One possible explanation for postoperative recurrence of lung cancer is intraoperative tumor cell spread. To verify the above hypothesis, we measured circulating tumor cell (CTC) count in both preoperative peripheral venous blood and also pulmonary venous blood of the extracted lobe by CellSearchTM system. CTC was detected in peripheral blood in 5 patients (16.7% ; the periCTC-count, 1 in 2 patients and 2, 3, 16 in one patient each), and the incidence was higher in squamous cell carcinoma patients than in adenocarcinoma patients (p=0.028). CTC was detected in pulmonary venous blood in most patients (29/30, 96.7%), and the mean and median CTC-counts were 1195 and 81, respectively (range, 0-10034). There was no significant correlation between CTC-count in peripheral blood and in pulmonary venous blood.
