ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To explore the patterns of mediastinal lymph node metastases and prognostic factors of recurrence in patients undergoing curative resection of stage IIIA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).METHODS:
A total of 92 patients underwent curative operation and pathologically diagnosed as stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC were retrospectively reviewed. The clinicopathological data were compared between the recurrence and non-recurrence groups. And the potential prognostic factors were included for multivariate analysis using Cox proportional hazard model.RESULTS:
The 3 and 5-year recurrence rates were 61.0% and 70.2% respectively. For univariate analysis, the prognostic factors were number of metastatic lymph nodes, positive lymph node ratio, number of metastatic mediastinal lymph nodes (MLN), positive MLN ratio, number of MLN metastasis > 3, multiple station metastasis, trans-regional metastasis and multi-zonal metastasis. A multivariate analysis using Cox regression identified 2 independent factors of prognosis trans-regional MLN metastasis (P = 0.035) and number of MLN metastasis >3 (P = 0.045). The recurrence risk of patients with trans-regional MLN metastasis was 2.0 times higher than those with regional MLN metastasis while the recurrence risk of patients with number of MLN metastasis >3 was 2.2 times higher than those with number of MLN metastasis of 1-3.CONCLUSION:
Recurrence risk of stage IIIA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after curative resection may be estimated by location and number of MLN metastasis. And the subgroup with trans-regional MLN metastasis and number of MLN metastasis >3 carries the highest risk of recurrence.
