Abstract

Background – Endobronchial squamous cell carcinoma is one of the most common types of tumors with such a location. Patients often present in advanced stages of the disease, which leads to a targeted therapeutic attitude of pneumonectomy, most of the time. Practicing a lung parenchyma-preserving surgery led us to do this review. Material and Methods - We used three search platforms SCIENCE, MEDLINE and PubMed, in order to identify studies presenting case reports, studies and reviews on endobronchial squamous cell carcinoma. We identified clinical and paraclinical features of endobronchial squamous cell carcinoma. All selected articles were in English and contained clinical criteria of endobronchial squamous cell carcinoma, autofluorescence bronchoscopy in endobronchial squamous cell carcinoma, imaging features of endobronchial squamous cell carcinoma, blood tumor markers specific for lung squamous cell carcinoma, histopathological features of endobronchial squamous cell carcinoma. Results - 73 articles were analyzed, from which 47 articles were selected as bibliographic references. We have presented the criteria found for endobronchial squamous cell carcinoma in order to highlight the main characteristics and high reliability technologies for the detection of this type of cancer. Conclusions – The current literature review highlights the clinical and paraclinical characteristics of endobronchial squamous cell carcinoma. It aims to open new horizons for research and early detection, frequent practice of lung parenchymal preservation surgery.
