Abstract

In a retrospective analysis of 150 incompletely resected NSCLC patients treated with adjuvant external beam radiotherapy 32 (21.3%) survived 3 years with no symptoms of disease. Ipsilateral mediastinal/hilar lymph node involvement and macroscopic incomplete surgery were the prognostic factors that unfavourably influenced survival in Cox's proportional hazards model. Postoperative external beam radiotherapy was the efficient adjuvant treatment method in microscopically incompletely resected NSCLC, predominantly with no nodes involvement, but had no benefit in those with macroscopic incomplete surgery.

Abstract

Between 1992 and 1999 at the Oncology Centre in Cracow 138 NSCLC patients after complete resection of the tumour with mediastinal/hilar node involvement were included in the prospective clinical trial. The analysis of the results did not show any improvement of survival in the postoperatively irradiated group. Three-year survival rates with no symptoms of disease in postoperative radiotherapy patients compared to surgery alone group were 30% and 29% respectively. In this study adjuvant radiotherapy significantly improved local recurrence rate from 28% in surgery only group to 9% in postoperatively treated patients.
