Abstract:
Objective To analyze prognostic factors of surgical treatment for elderly patients with non-small cell lung cancer,in order to provide a theoretic basis for improving the prognosis of patients with non-small cell lung cancer.Methods Clinical data of 145 elderly patients with non-small cell lung cancer who had received surgical treatment at our hospital from January 2012 to September 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.The survival rates of patients were investigated.Results The median survival time was 31.5 months,and 1-year,2-year and 3-year survival rates were 61.4%,45.5% and 40%,respectively.Single factor analysis showed that lesion size,number of metastatic lymph nodes,clinical stage,pathological type and radiotherapy were among the factors affecting prognosis.Multiple COX regression analysis showed that a lesion size >3cm,number of lymph nodes with metastasis > 2 and pathological type were independent risk factors for patient prognosis,and radiotherapy was a protective factor for prognosis.Conclusions Surgical treatment has good curative effects on non-small cell lung cancer in elderly patients.Lesion size,number of lymph nodes with metastasis,pathological type and radiotherapy are important factors affecting prognosis,and can be used for prognosis assessment.
