Talk:Horner's syndrome
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I don't think Pancoast tumour should be merged with Horner's syndrome. Horner's syndrome is a collection of clinical signs (ptosis, miosis etc.) and one of its many causes is Pancoast tumour (and by no way it is a popular cause). One should differentiate between signs and pathology and they shouldn't necessary be the same as the other. sctonyling 09:03, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] No Merger
I believe that Pancoast Tumor has 2 parts clinically ; one is Horner Synd and the other is Superior Vena Caval Obstruction (when tumor grows larger).So I dont think that they can be merged, a mention of Pancoast Tumor as a cause of Horner Synd in that article would suffice.if there is any article in which it should be merged with ,its Lung Cancer.--PrinceA 18:05, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
