      Background:
      The early detection and improved survival of resected non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) may increase the number of patients who eventually undergo subsequent pulmonary resection. We investigated the surgical outcomes and survival of patients following second and third pulmonary resections for NSCLC.

      Method:
      Patients who underwent second or third pulmonary resections without induction therapy for synchronous or metachronous NSCLC (511 patients, 535 procedures, 2000-2014) were included in the analysis.

      Result:
      Among 535 operations, 361 (67%) were sublobar resection and 103 (19%) were performed by minimally invasive approach, with the proportion of minimally-invasive procedures increasing in recent years (Fig. 1). The majority of re-resections were performed within 4 years of the previous resection (Fig. 2). Risk regression analysis demonstrated that predicted postoperative (ppo) FEV1 (p<0.001) and same side operation (p=0.002) were independent risk factors for severe complications (CTCAE grade ≧ 3; N=45). Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that age at subsequent surgery, male sex, ppoDLCO, interval from prior surgery, and tumor stage were independently associated with overall survival.

      Conclusion:
      In this large cohort of pulmonary re-resections for NSCLC, predicted postoperative pulmonary function tests were indictive of major complications and overall survival. Figure 1 Figure 2

      P1.13-003 - Recurrence Dynamics in Resected Pathological Stage I Lung Adenocarcinoma Depend on the IASLC/ATS/ERS Histological Subtype (ID 9423)

      Background:
      Current practice guidelines recommend uniform follow-up protocol for all stage I lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) patients who underwent surgical resection. We hypothesized that the annual recurrence hazard of resected pathological stage I lung ADC patients vary according to the IASLC/ATS/ERS histological subtype.

      Method:
      Pathological stage I lung ADC patients who had undergone complete resection (R0) without induction therapy (N=1572, 1995-2012) were analyzed.

      Result:
      Among 1572 patients, 271 (18.5%) recurrences were identified (median follow-up 64.0 months) with highest peak of recurrence within first two years following resection. Patients who had undergone sublobar resection showed higher recurrence rate than those who had undergone lobectomy (Fig. 1A). The recurrence hazard increased as a function of the percentage of micropapillary (MIP) pattern (Fig. 1B), while the solid pattern contributed to the early recurrence (Fig. 1C). According to the presence of MIP and/or solid (SOL) pattern, the recurrence hazard is well stratified. Tumors without micropapillary and solid subtype show no peak with 2% of annual recurrence hazard within 10 years following resection, while tumors with both MIP and SOL patterns have the highest peak within 2 years compared to other MIP and SOL combinations.

      Conclusion:
      Patients with resected pathological stage I lung ADC show structured recurrence dynamics well stratified with the high risk histological subtypes, providing clinically useful prognostic information for patients and physicians. Figure 1

      P2.05-021 - Occult Nodal Metastasis Following Lobectomy for Clinical Stage I Lung Adenocarcinoma: Implications for Sublobar Resection (ID 9436)

      09:30 - 09:30  |  Presenting Author(s): Yusuke Takahashi

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      We investigated the incidence and location of occult nodal metastasis (ONM) in patients who had undergone lobectomy and lymph node dissection for clinical stage I lung adenocarcinoma (ADC). We performed a risk regression analysis to identify any associated radiologic and pathologic factors.

      Method:
      Clinical stage I lung ADC patients (stage II and III were excluded by CT and FDG-PET/CT scans) who underwent lobectomy and systematic lymph node dissection (N=715, 2005-2011) were included in the analysis. ONM were defined as pathologically diagnosed metastatic lymph nodes that are not suspected to be involved by cancer on both CT and PET scans.

      Result:
      Among 715 patients, 75 (10.5%) ONM were identified: 64 (85%) hilar or peribronchial and 32 (43%) mediastinal. Multivariable risk regression analysis identified tumor diameter, SUVmax, and lymphovascular invasion as risk factors (P<0.01). The incidence of subcarinal lymph node (LN) metastasis was very low among patients whose primary tumors were in the right upper lobe or left upper division (N=1/439, 0.2%). Lower mediastinal LN metastasis was rarely identified only when the primary tumor was located in the right lower or left lower lobe (N=2/210, 1.0%).

      Conclusion:
      One in ten patients with clinical stage I lung adenocarcinoma showed occult nodal metastases, with the highest incidence in hilar lymph nodes; this observation may be relevant for clinicians when considering sublobar resection for these patients. Figure 1
