Akciğer kanseri dünya çapında en önemli mortalite nedenlerinden biridir. Tanı gecikmesi, hastada emosyonel strese, kür ve etkili palyasyon sağlayacak tedavilerin gecikmesine neden olmaktadır. Bu çalışmada; akciğer kanserli hastalarda tanı ve tadavi gecikmesini etkileyen faktörlerin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Histopatolojik tanısı konmuş 106 akciğer kanserli hastanın semptomlarının başlangıcından doktora başvurusuna geçen süre (SB), başvurudan patolojik tanıya (BP), başvurudan tedavi başlangıcına (BT), semptom başlangıcından tedavi başlangıcına (ST) geçen süre retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. Semptom başlangıcından doktor başvurusuna kadar geçen süre ile hastaların cinsiyeti, mesleği, yaşadığı yer, lezyonun lokalizasyonu, malignite öyküsü, kronik akciğer hastalığı varlığının ilişkisi değerlendirildi. Semptom başlangıcından tedavi başlangıcına kadar geçen sürenin lezyonun lokalizasyonu, malignite öyküsü, kronik akciğer hastalığı olması ile ilişkisi değerlendirildi. Hastaların evrelerine göre SB, BP ve BT'ye geçen süre değerlendirildi. SB ve BP sırasıyla 42.5±61.6, 61.7±55.6 gündü. En hızlı başvuran vena kava süperior sendromlu hastayı, hemoptzisi ve nörolojik semptomları olan hastalar izlemekteydi. Hastanın cinsiyetinin, mesleğinin SB'yi, yaşadığı yerin, lezyon lokalizasyonunun, malignite öyküsünün ve kronik akciğer hastalığı varlığının SB ve ST'yi etkilemediği bulundu. Evreler arasında SB, BP, BT açısından fark izlenmedi. Çalışmamızda akciğer kanserli hastalarda semptom başlangıcından doktora başvuruya ve tedavi başlangıcına kadar geçen süreler önerilenden daha uzun bulundu. Bu gecikmeyi hastanın yaşadığı yer, mesleği, kronik akciğer hastalığı olması, kendisinde başka kanser, ailesinde akciğer kanseri olmasının ve lezyonun lokalizasyonunun etkilemediği görüldü. Semptomlar başladıktan sonra en kısa sürede akciğer kanseri tanısını koyup etkin tedavinin uygulanabilmesi için tanı gecikmesini etkileyen faktörleri belirlemeye yönelik ileri araştırmalara ihtiyaç vardır.

Lung cance r is worldwide important cause of mortality. Diagnostic delay results emotional stres and treatment delay. The aim was to investigate factors influencing delay in diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. Histopathologically proven 106 patients with lung cancer were enrolled.Time from initiation of symptom to reference to doctor (SR) and to treatment (ST), from reference to pathological diagnosis (RP) and to treatment (RT) were evaluated retrospectively. The relationship between SR and gender, profession, living place, localization of lesion, malignancy history, presence of chronic lung disease was evaluated. The relationship between ST and living place, localization of lesion, malignancy history, presence of chronic lung disease was evaluated. SR, RP and RT were evaluated according to stages of patients. SR and RP were respectively 42.5±61.6, 61.7±55.6 days. Most rapid reference was acquired to patient who had vena cava superior syndrome, was followed up by patients who had hemoptysis and neurologic symptoms. Gender and profession was not effective on SR. Localization of lesion, malignancy history, presence of chronic lung disease were not affective on SR and ST .There was no difference between stages of the disease in the means of SR, RP and RT. In this report SR and ST was found longer than suggested. It is shown taht this delay was not affected from living place, presence of chronic lung disease, malignancy history, localization of lesion. Further studies are nececcary to clarify reasons of diagnostic delay of lung cancer patients to apply appropriate treatment as soon as possible.
