Factors affecting long term survival following resection for lung cancer.
BACKGROUND Survival following pulmonary resection for primary lung cancer is considered to be principally dependent on the clinical stage of the disease. A study was undertaken to verify this and to identify other contributing factors. METHODS The case records of all patients who underwent surgery for lung cancer over a two year period between January 1987 and December 1988 were reviewed retr...
متن کاملFactors affecting long-term survival after en-bloc resection of lung cancer invading the chest wall.
OBJECTIVE Several reports emphasize the importance of en-bloc resection as the optimal surgical treatment of lung cancer with chest wall invasion. We investigated possible factors which could affect long-term survival following radical resection of these tumors. METHODS Between 1981 and 1998, 100 patients (90 male; ten female), with a median age of 60 years (36-84), underwent radical en-bloc ...
متن کاملCompletely Resected N0 Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Prognostic Factors Affecting Long-Term Survival
Background. Although early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has an excellent outcome and correlated with good long-term survival, up to 15 percent of patients still relapse postoperatively and die. This study is conducted to identify prognostic factors that may affect the long-term survival in completely resected N0 NSCLC. Methods. Medical records of 124 patients with completely resecte...
متن کاملEarly lung cancer in the elderly: sublobar resection provides equivalent long-term survival in comparison with lobectomy
AIM OF THE STUDY The worldwide population shift towards older ages will inevitably lead to more elderly patients being diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It still remains controversial whether sublobar resection is effective in such cases at an early stage. To answer this question, we need to understand the clinical characteristics of these tumors. MATERIAL AND METHODS From 20...
متن کاملPrognostic Factors Affecting Long-Term Survival after Resection for Noncolorectal, Nonneuroendocrine, and Nonsarcoma Liver Metastases
AIM To evaluate feasibility and long-term outcome after hepatic resection for noncolorectal, nonneuroendocrine, and nonsarcoma (NCNNNS) liver metastases in a single center. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed our experience on patients who underwent surgery for NCNNNS liver metastases from 1995 to 2015. Patient baseline characteristics, tumor features, treatment options, and postoperative out...
