Lobectomy versus segmentectomy in patients with T1N2 non–small cell lung cancer: An analysis of the National Cancer Database
In this NCDB analysis, lobectomy was more commonly performed for T1N2 NSCLC compared with segmentectomy. Lobectomy offered a significant survival advantage over segmentectomy, even when adjusting for risk factors. Thus, these findings suggest that lobectomy may be a superior resection of choice for patients with T1N2 disease.
