Abstract
The mean cost for outpatient lung cancer treatment was 62% lower than for hospitalization. Nonsmall cell carcinomas were more costly on average than small cell carcinomas, and advanced stages of the small cell carcinomas involved a higher average cost than the initial stages of the disease. For our series, the savings to be made from unnecessary admissions were calculated at â¬120 258.
