Résumé
INTRODUCTION: The aim of the study is to describe the hospital management of patients undergoing pulmonary resection for lung cancer in France. METHODS: Data from patients who underwent resection for "malignant neoplasm of bronchus and lung" in 2008 were analyzed from French PMSI database. Hospitalizations, chemotherapy and radiotherapy sessions were analyzed one year before and after the procedure. RESULTS: In 2008, 9161 patients were hospitalized for a resection of lung tumor. Sex ratio was 2.8 (n=6736 men) and average age was 62.8 years. During hospitalization for surgery, 3.5% of patients (n=323) died. In the year before the procedure, 10% of patients (n=961) received neoadjuvant chemotherapy (mean number: 5.2 sessions per patient). In the year after the procedure, 41% of patients (n=3796) received adjuvant chemotherapy (6.6 sessions per patient), 9% (n=812) received adjuvant radiotherapy (16.8 sessions per patient), 6% (n=562) were re-hospitalized for surgery for an additional procedure. CONCLUSION: In France, pulmonary resection for lung cancer was associated for about half of patients in a multimodal treatment with combination between chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy.
