Prognostic factors of recurrence and disease-free survival in radically resected pulmonary carcinoids: a real-world analysis

CONCLUSIONS: Recurrence in PCs after complete resection is relatively rare. However, DFS is reduced in ACs compared to TCs. Tumor size (cm) and nodal involvement appear as the most important prognostic factors associated with recurrence in PCs, independent of histologic type.PMID:38617753 | PMC:PMC11009585 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-23-1681
