Prognosis of segmentectomy in the treatment of stage IA non‑small cell lung cancer (Review)

Abstract: With improvements in detection technology, increasing numbers of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are being diagnosed at an early stage. In order to treat the illness with minimal invasion and preserve lung function to the greatest possible extent, there has been an increasing tendency towards treating early-stage NSCLC by segmentectomy. However, questions remain regarding whether patients may benefit from this procedure considering the surgical and oncological outcomes. Whether adequate margin… Show more

“…The concerns associated with the use of segmentectomy for inner lesions are the difficulty in securing the proximal margin and the high dominance of lymph node metastasis. Regarding the proximal margin, although there are no accepted criteria to prevent loco-regional relapse, margins of 15 mm for a deflated lung and 20 mm for an inflated lung would be acceptable according to the previous literature [ 7 , 8 ]. In our institution, segmentectomy has been allowed in cases where a 20-mm distance can be secured from the hilum on preoperative evaluation.…”

“… 11 Experts noted that a key goal when planning the extent of segmentectomy is ensuring sufficient surgical margin can be achieved as insufficient surgical margins may be associated with the risk of locoregional recurrence. 12 …”

“…Currently, the widely used clinical treatments for NSCLC mainly include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy; however, the specific treatment depends on the stage of the disease and the patient’s health status. Few patients with early stage NSCLC require surgical treatment, and the 5-year survival rate of patients with stage IA NSCLC is 70% [ 3 ]. However, for patients with advanced NSCLC, surgery combined with chemotherapy or radiation therapy is necessary, and the overall 5-year survival rate is only 14–17%, with a poor prognosis [ 4 ].…”
