Abstract:
Lung cancer has become one of the most serious diseases threatening human society.According to statistics,the incidence and mortality rates of lung cancer rank first among all malignant tumors worldwide.Moreover,with the popularization of low-dose CT and other examination methods,more and more patients with lung cancer are detected in the early phase of the tumor.At present,lobectomy with systematic lymph node dissection(SLND)remains the standard treatment for patients with resectable lung cancer.However,in recent years,some studies have shown uncertain survival benefits of SLND for early-stage lung cancer.Instead,SLND was related to the incidence of postoperative complications and decreased immunotherapy efficiency.Therefore,in the treatment of early-stage lung cancer,selective lymph node resection,including mediastinal lymph node sampling(MLNS)and lobe-specific lymph node dissection(L-SLND),are increasingly gaining the attention and acceptance of clinicians.Selective lymph node dissection not only minimizes over-treatment and ensures treatment effectiveness but also reflects a precise understanding of the personalized treatment needs of patients with early-stage lung cancer.
