Abstract

Prognostic factors and in particular which pattern of lymph node metastases better predict prognosis in NSCLC with N2 up-staging are not well investigated yet. We reviewed the data of 550 patients and pointed out the role of lymph node ratio and of adjuvant therapy to improve overall and cancer-specific survival in these patients.
