Comparative oncological features of centrally and peripherally located small-sized radiologically solid-dominant non-small-cell lung cancer
Patient prognosis following complete anatomical resection was comparable between centrally and peripherally located radiologically solid-dominant cN0 NSCLC tumours ≤2 cm in size. However, centrally located tumours were associated with a higher risk of pN1 upstaging, highlighting the importance of thorough hilar lymph node dissection in these patients.
