Abstract

Tumor markers were investigated in order to predict the prognosis of lung cancer (LC). It was aimed to find the prognostic value of serum parameters, which may reflect iron metabolism, and of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) ferritin measurement in LC patients. The age, gender, tumor cell type, stage of the disease, serum ferritin levels at diagnosis, BAL ferritin, serum iron, and serum iron-binding capacities (SIBC) of the patients diagnosed with LC were recorded. A total of 37 (90.2%) male and 4 (9.8%) female patients, with a mean age of 60.6 years, were included in this study. Mean follow-up period was 11.9 months. During this period, 32 patients (78.0%) died. Levels of serum iron (p= 0.175), SIBC (p= 0.577), serum ferritin (p= 0.426) and BAL ferritin (p= 0.073) did not reveal a difference regarding tumor cell type. Although the mean BAL ferritin and SIBC levels of deceased patients were not statistically different, their mean serum iron level (42.1 ± 28.0) was lower (74.7 ± 26.3) than that of survivors (p= 0.003). Serum ferritin levels of deceased patients were higher (395.3 ± 437.7), and statistically significant compared to survivors (72.9±46.3) (p= 0.006). A weak positive correlation (p= 0.025, r: 0.349) between serum iron levels and survival, and a weak negative correlation (p= 0.034, r: –0.332) between serum ferritin levels and survival were detected. Although SIBC and BAL ferritin levels at diagnosis are not correlated with the survival period in patients with LC, lower serum iron and higher ferritin levels are correlated with poor prognosis.

Özet

Akciğer kanseri (AK)’nin prognozunu tahmin etmek için çeşitli tümör markerleri araştırılmaktadır. Demir metabolizmasını yansıtan serum parametrelerinin ve bronkoalveloer lavaj (BAL) sıvısında ferritin ölçümünün AK’li hastalarda prognostik değerinin ortaya çıkarılması amaçlandı. Histopatolojik ve radyolojik olarak AK teşhis edilen hastaların yaş, cinsiyet, tümör hücre tipi, hastalığın evresi, teşhis anında serum ferritin, BAL ferritin, serum demir ve serum demir bağlama kapasitesi (SDBK) kaydedildi. Yaş ortalamaları 60.6 yıl olan 37 (%90.2) erkek, 4 (%9.8) kadın hasta alındı. Hastaların ortalama takip süreleri 11,9 ay idi. Hastaların 32’si (%78,0) takip süresinde ex olmuştu. Tümör hücre tipine göre serum demir (p= 0.175), SDBK (p= 0.577), serum ferritin (p= 0.426), BAL ferritin (p= 0.073) düzeyleri farklılık göstermedi. Ex olan hastaların yaşayan hasta grubuna göre BAL ferritin, SDBK ortalamaları istatistiksel olarak farklı değilken, serum demir (42.1 ± 28.0) ortalaması yaşayan gruba göre (74.7 ± 26,3) düşük saptandı (p= 0.003). Serum ferritini (395.3±437.7) ise yaşayan gruba göre (72.9 ± 46.3) yüksek ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulundu (p= 0.006). Serum demiri düzeyleri ile yaşam süreleri arasında pozitif yönde, zayıf bir ilişki (p= 0.025, r: 0.349), serum ferritin düzeyleri ile yaşam süreleri arasında negatif yönde, zayıf bir ilişki (p= 0.034, r: –0.332) saptandı. Akciğer kanserli hastalarda teşhis anında SDBK ve BAL ferritin düzeyleri yaşam süresi ile ilişkili değilken, serum demirinin düşük ve serum ferritinin yüksek olması kötü prognoz ile ilişkilidir.
