[Problems of immunological monitoring and lung excision for carcinoma].

Following a number of remarks on the desirability of introducing into the practice of bronchopulmonary cancer surgery certain immunological ideas, a monitoring programme to be adopted in candidates for lung exeresis and for their subsequent monitoring is presented. The data to emerge thus far may be correlated fairly precisely with the prognosis and from this point of view their use in the selection of patients to be operated might be hypothesised.
