Results of surgical treatment of non–small cell lung cancer: validation of the new postoperative pathologic tnm classification

Abstract: Most of our findings confirmed prognostic relevance of the current pTNM stage grouping in patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer. However, despite recent modifications, there is still a significant heterogeneity that flaws stage IIIA.

“…The 1997 system has been reported to have no significant difference between stages IB and IIA in many reports. [16][17][18][19][20][21][22] The 5-year survival rate of patients with stage IB disease is inferior to that of patients with stage IIA disease in our series according to the 1997 system. Prognosis in stage IIA has not been evaluated properly because of small number of the patients.…”

“…Prognosis in stage IIA has not been evaluated properly because of small number of the patients. [16][17][18][19][20][21][22] The proportion of patients with stage IIA disease in our series increases from 2.5% to 9.5% in the 2009 system, and the 5-year survival rate of patients with stage IB disease is slightly superior to that of patients with stage IIA disease, but there is no difference between stages IB and IIA. Similar results are reported in another report.…”

“…No câncer de pulmão de células não pequenas estádio I, a sobrevida em cinco anos é de 70 a 80%, (22) enquanto que nos está-dios mais avançados (III e IV) a mortalidade no mesmo período é superior a 90%. (23,24) O presente estudo evidenciou que o acesso ao hospital para investigação dos sintomas relacionados ao câncer de pulmão é, em geral, demorado. Procuraram assistên-cia médica após 60 dias do início dos sintomas 58% dos pacientes.…”

“…Surgical treatment is generally considered curative for early-stage NSCLC. However, more than 60% patients suffer local or distant recurrence of NSCLC at early time after curative resection (Jassem et al, 2000). Platinum-based adjuvant chemotherapy is mostly used for these patients.…”
