Abstrakt		Background. In the restrospective study the efficiency, speed and cost-efficiency of the lung cancer diagnosis in outpateint setting was evaluated. Methods. Data-base was checked in 81 patients who underwent outpatient setting bronchoscopy in the General Hospital of Celje, between January and December 1997. We presented indications, the way of procedure and the results in outpatient setting bronchoscopies. Diagnostic medical examinations which were necessary for staging and treatment of diseases were also mentioned. Results. Out of 81 outpatient setting performed bronchoscopic procedures, 29 were diagnosed with lung cancer. The diagnosis was microscopically established with bronchoscopy in 22 patients (20 out of 22 were considered positive with cytologic evidence, 13 with histologuc evidence and 10 with both). There were no serious complications. Conclusions. The present study evaluates bronchoscopy in outpatient setting (especially flexible nronchoscopy) as an effective low-cost and fast way of established diseases and a precondition for patient's appropriate further treatment.
Izvleček		Izhodišča. Z retrogradno študijo opravljenega dela smo želeli oceniti uspešnost, hitrost in tudi ceno ambulantne diagnostike pljučnega raka. Metode. Pregledali smo dokumentacije 81 preiskovancev, ki so bili ambulantno bronhoskopirani v endoskopskem centru SB Celje, v obdobju od januarja do decembra 1997. Prikazali smo indikacije, način posega in rezultate ambulantnih bronhoskopij. Omenili smo tudi ostale diagnostične preiskave, ki so bile potrebne za zamejitev in zdravljenje bolezni. Rezultati. Od 81 ambulantno bronhoskopiranih bolnikov smo pri 29 diagnosticirali pljučnega raka. Diagnozo smo mikroskopsko potrdili v 22 primerih (od tega 20 citološko, 13 histološko ter 10 na oba načina). Resnih zapletov ni bilo. Zaključki. Ambulantna diagnostika pljučnega raka (zlasti upogljiva bronhoskopija) je uspešen in hiter način ugotavljanja bolezni, kar je pogoj za ustrezno zdravljenje bolnikov. Je tudi bistveno cenejša of hospitalizacije.
