Besides,Ⅲa staging contains a lot of complicated clinical TNM stages,so, the opinions of experts at home and abroad are various about treatment of NSCLC with Ⅲa staging. Neoadjuvant therapy, surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy play important roles under different conditions. Especially surgery is occupying a pivotal position in comprehensive therapy of Ⅲa NSCLC.
