Introduction: Approximately only 20-40% of those who suffer from nonmicrocellular lung cancer at detection of disease are candidates for operational treatment. Pre-operational use of inductive oncological therapy at 60- 75% of cases "takes" the disease into lower level, while at 50% of cases it is possible to do resectional treatment. The aim of work is to demonstrate efficiency of inductive oncological treatment in relation to possibility of resection. Material and methods: This analysis includes 62 patients who underwent different surgical treatment, and after inductive oncological treatment. Results: There is a ignificant statistical difference in frequency of appearance between the two most common sorts of cancer (x2=25; p=0), the same as statistically significant difference in frequency of certain sorts of cancer according to gender (p= 0). Using Fisher exact test, there was no statistically defined significant dependence between the sort of cancer and its sensitivity to chemotherapy (p=0,2) the same as there was not statistical dependency of chemo therapeutical sensitivity in relation to gender (p=1). Using chi-square test, there was no defined statistically significant difference in frequency of sort of operation in relation to sort of cancer (x2=1; p=0,6). There is a presence of statistically significant positive connection between the days spent at intensive care and days spent at the ward of surgically treated patients (rho =0,63; p< 0,01) and also there is statistically significant dependence between the response to chemo therapy and days spent at intensive care (p=0). There is also defined statistically significant dependency between the sort of operational treatment and days spent at intensive care and at ward of standard care (x2=17; p=0 vs. x2=11; p=0). Conclusion: There is an evident relation of sort of surgical treatment and operational techniques to duration of post operational treatment.
