Strategies of Individual Surgical Treatment for Early Stage Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and the Guidance of Intraoperative Frozen Pathology

Early stage non-small cell lung cancer patients, especially those who presented small GGO on image, are increasing in Asia population. Retrospective clinical data indicated that the efficacy of sub-lobectomy for these patients may be non-inferior to that of lobectomy. Meanwhile, sub-lobectomy could...

Description
Summary:Early stage non-small cell lung cancer patients, especially those who presented small GGO on image, are increasing in Asia population. Retrospective clinical data indicated that the efficacy of sub-lobectomy for these patients may be non-inferior to that of lobectomy. Meanwhile, sub-lobectomy could preserve more pulmonary function for the patients. Researches have demonstrated that careful evaluation for the image manifestation is essential before sub-lobectomy and those who diagnosed as adenocarcinoma in situ or minimally invasive adenocarcinoma may be more appropriate for this procedure. Precise diagnosis of Intraoperative frozen section is an effective method toward personalization of surgical care for early-stage non-smallcell lung cancer.
