ABSTRACT
Lung cancer has some of the highest morbidity and mortality rates of all cancers, and an important risk factor for mortality in patients with lung cancer is tumor metastasis. Even if a tumor is completely removed at an early stage of the disease, quite a number of patients still have the risk of recurrence. With the advent of molecular diagnostic and therapeutics, more and more studies have found that a poor prognosis may be related to lymph node micrometastasis. However, clinicians still find that predicting the prognosis and choosing the type of surgery and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy are still challenging. Thus, this article reviews the current research status of lymph node micrometastasis in non-small cell lung cancer, envision to provide some updates and insights in this area.
