Oncologic outcomes of patients with resected T3N0M0 non-small cell lung cancer

This study aims to compare the oncologic outcomes associated with individual T3 features. We performed a single-institution, retrospective analysis of 280 consecutive patients with pT3 N0M0 NSCLC. Multivariate regression models were used to estimate associations of clinical factors with oncologic outcomes. The patients were grouped according to their T3 features into 4 prognostic groups: chest wall infiltration (CWI-PG), largest diameter> 5 cm and ≤ 7cm (Size-PG), presence of a satellite nodule (SN-PG), and all other T3 features.
