	eMedicine - Pancoast Tumor : Article by Shabir Bhimji, MD
		Pancoast tumors are a subset of lung cancers that invades the apical chest wall.
		Although various other tumors may produce a similar clinical presentation because of their location at the thoracic inlet, the most common cause is generally believed to be a bronchogenic carcinoma arising in or near the superior sulcus and invading the adjacent extrathoracic structures by direct extension.
		Although various other tumors may produce a similar clinical presentation by virtue of their location at the thoracic inlet, the most common cause is generally believed to be a bronchogenic carcinoma arising in or near the superior sulcus and invading the adjacent extrathoracic structures by direct extension.

	Pancoast Tumor
		Pancoast tumors are tumors that form at the extreme apex (very top) of either the right or left lung in the superior sulcus (a shallow furrow on the surface of the lung).
		Pancoast tumors are a subset of lung cancers that invade the top of the chest wall.
		Carcinomas (cancerous tumors) in the superior pulmonary sulcus produce the Pancoast syndrome, which is characterized by pain in the shoulder and along the inner side of the arm and hand.

	Pancoast Tumor Medical Reference Medical Encyclopedia Information
		Pancoast tumors tend to spread to the tissue surrounding them in the early stage of the disease.
		Although a Pancoast tumor is a lung tumor, it rarely causes symptoms that are typically related to the lungs (eg, cough, chest pain).
		In the early stages, Pancoast tumors are difficult to detect on chest x-ray films because the top of the lung is located in an area of the body that is difficult to visualize clearly on an x-ray film.

	eMedicine - Pancoast Tumor : Article by Melanie Guerrero, MD
		Staging of Pancoast tumor involves the tumor, node, and metastasis (TNM) classification in which T indicates site and size of the primary tumor, N is related to nodal involvement according to site, and M indicates the presence or absence of distant metastasis.
		Degree of Confidence: In the early stages, Pancoast tumors are difficult to detect on PA chest radiographs because of the difficulty in interpreting overlying shadows at the apices.
		Degree of Confidence: In an older study of 31 patients with superior pulmonary sulcus tumors (Heelan, 1989), CT had a sensitivity of 60% and a specificity of 65%, with an overall accuracy of 63% in the evaluation of the extent of disease.
