|
چکیده انگلیسی مقاله |
Background: This study was conducted to review the epidemiology, and biochemical data of pleural fluid to assess the potential contribution to occupational risk of patients with malignant mesothelioma (MM) in Iran . Materials and Methods: Hospital files of patients with MM of the pleura in Masih Daneshvari Hospital were reviewed between 1997 and 2004 and were evaluated in a cross-sectional study. Results: 66 patients (49 men and 17 women) with a mean age of 53.8± 4.2 yrs were selected. Probable or known occupational contacts were detected in 8 (12.1%) patients. The diagnosis was confirmed by closed pleural biopsy in 26(39.4%) cases. Statistical analysis showed significant cut-off for LDH and glucose level in pleural fluid analysis. Conclusion: Detailed occupational history must not overemphasize blind biopsy as the first diagnostic approach for MM of pleura and pleural fluid glucose as well as LDH had characteristic levels respectively.
