PATIENTS AND METHODS The data of fibrobronchoscopy and cytological findings based on the materials of 75 patients with a clinical diagnosis of LC were studied and compared. By the sum of the numerous cytomorphological features of epithelial cells and their components, the cells of the cylindrical epithelium and LC of various histological types were identified. The cells in bronchial smears and bronchial lavage were stained by Pappenheim and Papanicolau. Diagnostic material was examined by light microscopy. RESULTS We have found that in a part of the patients (49%), the tumors with exophytic growth in the bronchus are covered with a cylindrical epithelium, which indirectly indicates the origin of cancer growth under the epithelial layer. In cytological preparations of 51% patients, cancer cells were found, which confirms the tumor invasion into the bronchial mucosa. In 48 (64%) patients, fibrobronchoscopy revealed that the examined bronchus was compressed from 50% to pinpoint width, evidencing that tumor growth develops from the outside, peribronchially. CONCLUSION The obtained data indirectly confirm the development of central LC from type II pneumocytes, which are found in the glands of the submucous membrane of the bronchus. However, it does not exlude the development of this type of LC from the basal cell of the bronchial epithelium.

The study of the growth of lung cancer (LC) has an important clinical significance for morphological verification, the choice of the treatment method, and the determining of prognosis. Investigation of this question allows to clarify the histogenesis of LC. The aim of our study was to compare the results of cytological studies of the material obtained during flexible bronchoscopy (FBS) and scrapings from the operated tumors of the bronchi to clarify the nature of LC growth. Design. To study the growth of tumors in the bronchi in relation to the bronchial mucosa, the cytological examination of the material obtained by FBS and scrapings from the surface of the operated bronchial tumors of 31 patients has been performed. Results. In the preoperative period, in the material of FBS, tumor cells were found only in 1/3 of patients. To obtain the optimal material from exophytic tumors of the bronchus, scrapings were carried out from the entire surface surgical material of the sa...
