High PD-L1 expression correlates with lymph node metastasis in patients who have undergone radical surgery for primary pulmonary adenocarcinoma
High PD-L1 expression correlates with lymph node metastasis and SUV-max in patients who underwent radical surgery for primary pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Lymph node metastasis and high SUV-max were identified as a potential independent risk factor for postoperative recurrence and might be a risk factor for recurrence in the postoperative period.
