Resection Rate and Outcome of Pulmonary Resections for Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer: A Nationwide Study From Iceland

Abstract: Compared with most other published studies, the SRR of NSCLC in Iceland is high. Short-term outcome is good, with a low rate of major complications and an operative mortality of only 1.0%. Five-year survival improved significantly over the study period.

“…Lobectomy is considered the gold standard of treatment for NSCLC [4], as numerous studies have shown that lobectomy has better outcome than sublobar resections with regard to both recurrence of cancer and long-term survival [8,9]. Until recently, segmentectomy and wedge resection have been used when pulmonary function or other comorbidities pose a high operative risk.…”

“…The 46.8% combined 5-year survival rate for stage-I and stage-II lung cancers is significantly below the rate for most other cancers (Thorsteinsson et al, 2012). Adenocarcinoma is the most prevalent histologic type of lung cancer in both genders in Taiwan (Hsu et al, 2012) and pulmonary adenocarcinoma is the most prevalent histologic type of cancer in non-smoking women.…”
