Sumario:OBJECTIVE: To explored the prognostic value of pretreatment serum fibrinogen level in young patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC). METHODS: The concentrations of serum fibrinogen of 183 young (<50 years old) SCLC patients were measured. The association of baseline serum fibrinogen level and clinical outcome was analyzed by survival analysis. RESULTS: Hyperfibrinogenemia was significantly associated with American Veterans Administration Lung Study Group stage and surgery treatment. The survival analysis indicated that patients with hypefibrinogenemia had worse outcome than patients with normal fibrinogen. Pretreatment serum fibrinogen level was identified as a worse independent survival predictor in young SCLC. The hazard ratio was 1.420 (95% confidence interval: 1.035−1.947). CONCLUSIONS: Pretreatment serum fibrinogen is independent associated with overall survival in patients with young SCLC.
