“…Many authors have tried to identify them and a various number of tumor characteristics seems to be involved. After reviewing the body of literature, (I) complete resection and (II) complete pathological response to therapy turned out to be positive prognostic factors in various series (17,29,(35)(36)(37)(38)40,52,55,(59)(60)(61)(62); (III) T status has been recognized as a poor prognostic factor (11,17,21,29,36,(52)(53)(54)(55)59). In particular brachial plexus invasion (59), vertebral body (11,52,53) and great vessels involvements (11,53) are correlated to an higher risk of tumor recurrence.…”
