热疗联合胸腔内注射药物治疗恶性胸腔积液的疗效观察

背景与目的恶性胸腔积液是晚期肺癌的常见并发症,胸腔内药物注射是治疗恶性胸腔积液最常见的方法之一,但存在疗效不稳定、药物不良反应大等问题。本研究的目的是观察热疗加局部药物注射治疗恶性胸腔积液的疗效、生活质量和不良反应。方法确诊为肺腺癌或鳞癌所致的恶性胸腔积液的初治患者50例,随机分为两组。采用胸腔穿刺或胸腔闭式引流尽可能排尽胸水后,A组给予胸腔内注射顺铂50mg、白介素-24×106U,然后进行患侧胸腔的深部热疗;B组患者只给予胸腔内注射顺铂50mg、白介素-24×106U。结果A组控制胸水的总有效率为88%,B组为60%(P=0.024)。A组与B组生活质量好转率分别为72%和40%(P=0.013)。结论采用热疗加局部药物注射治疗恶性胸腔积液疗效确切,不良反应小,安全性高。

Hyperthermia combined with intracavitary injection of drug for malignant pleural effusion

Background and objective Malignant pleural effusion is one of the common complications in patients with advanced lung cancer. Intracavitary injection of drug is a usual method, but it also exhibits unstable efficacy and obvious adverse reaction. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of hyperthermia combined with intracavitary injection of drug for malignant pleural effusion. Methods Fifty patients with malignant pleural effusion caused by lung cancer were randomized into two groups after puncture or closed drainage. Group A was treated with hyperthermia combined with intrapleural injection of cisplatin and interleukin-2. Group B was treated only with intrapleural injection of cisplatin and interleukin-2. Results The response rate of pleural effusion was 88% in group A and 60% in group B (P=0.024). The quality of life in group A was significantly better than that in group B (P=0.013). Conclusion Hyperthermia combined with intracavitary injection is effective and secure in treatment of malignant pleural effusion.
