O13.02 - Is the Limited Surgical Resection Appropriate for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancers More than 2 cm in a Diameter? - Proposed Surgical Indication by the Presence of Ground-glass Opacity of The Tumor on Thin-section CT scan (ID 3266)

Background
The size of solid component is much more important for predicting survival than maximum tumor dimension on thin-section CT scan in lung cancer. Moreover, the presence of ground-glass nodule (GGN) is the other significant predictor of pathologic lymph node-positive status. Our previous study showed that tumors with the absence of GGN, i.e. pure-solid, have more pathologically invasive nature than tumors with the presence of GGN, i.e. part-solid, even if both tumors have the same size of solid component on thin section CT. Therefore, it could be estimated that part-solid tumors with the small size of solid component have less frequency of nodal involvement, regardless of the maximum tumor dimension for resectable lung cancer patients.Methods
Between February 2008 and April 2013, 306 consecutive patients with part-solid tumors that measured less than 30 mm in diameter of solid component and had clinically negative nodal involvement (cN0) on thin-section CT underwent surgical resection at our hospital. The findings of preoperative thin-section CT scan were reviewed for all 306 patients and part-solid tumors were defined as a tumor containing both solid and GGN component. Consolidation tumor ration (CTR) of those tumors showed 0 < CTR <1.0 and both pure GGN and pure solid tumors were excluded from this study. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed by the logistic regression procedure to determine the relationship between pathological lymph node positive status and clinical or radiological findings.Results
Of the 306 patients, 14 (4.6%) had pathological lymph node metastasis. Nodal involvement was observed in 3(1.9%) out of 156 patients with the maximum tumor dimension less than 20mm, i.e. cT1a tumors, 5 (4.4%) out of 113 cT1b tumors and 6 (16.2%) out of 37 cT2a tumors. The size of solid component on thin-section CT scan and consolidation tumor ratio (CTR) were significant predictors of pathological nodal involvement in both univariate and multivariate analysis (p<0.05, respectively). Part-solid tumors with the size of solid component ≤ 17mm and CTR ≤ 0.7, which were obtained as cutoff values of predicting pathological lymph node metastasis based on the result of Receiver operating characteristics curves, 1(1.4%) in 73 patients with these criteria had pathological lymph node positive status even in the c-T1b and c-T2a part-solid tumors on thin-section CT scan.Conclusion
Among part-solid tumors with cN0 status, even cT1b and cT2a tumors with small size of solid component on thin-section CT scan have less frequency of nodal involvement and less invasive nature on pathological examination. These tumors could be candidates for limited surgical resection such as segmentectomy with nodal dissection only when enough surgical margin is warranted.Only Members that have purchased this event or have registered via an access code will be able to view this content.

P1.20-011 - Retrospective Study of Lung Cancer Screening. (ID 3372)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): T. Maeyashiki
- Abstract
Background
The lung cancer screening in Japan is only chest radiography now. But in 2011, the national lung screening trial research team was reported reduced lung-cancer mortality with low-dose computed tomographic screening. We studied lung cancer patients about a difference of a screening type, for example radiography and computed tomography.Methods
From January 2008 through May 2013, we performed the operation of 1344 lung cancer patients. In those patients, 1018 patients were proved the type of screening.Results
The number of patients by symptom, radiography and computed tomography are 146 (14%), 340 (33%) and 378 (37%), respectively. The rate of clinical stage I (789, 78%) are 72 (7%), 265 (26%), 338 (33%), respectively. The rate of pathological stage I (672, 66%) are 53 (5%), 212 (21%), 312 (31%), respectively. On the other hand, the rate of clinical III are 31 (3%), 25(2%), 14 (1%), respectively. The rate of pathological III are 47 (5%), 54 (5%), 31 (3%), respectively. The difference of between clinical stage I and screening type are 0.000, 0.813, and 0.000, respectively. The difference of between pathological stage I and screening are 0.000, 0.081, and 0.000, respectively.symptom radiography CT pt 146 340 378 age 64±1 64±0.7 67±0.5 cStage IA 50 199 296 IB 22 66 42 IIA 18 25 6 IIB 15 13 8 IIIA 25 21 12 IIIB 6 4 2 IV 7 3 1 pStage IA 35 155 259 IB 18 57 53 IIA 12 31 13 IIB 16 23 11 IIIA 41 50 30 IIIB 6 4 1 IV 12 7 4 Conclusion
In the group of symptom and radiography, there are a lot of advanced lung cancer patients, while in the group of computed tomography, we can detect a lot of early lung cancer patients. Computed tomography is better than the other screening about the detecting lung cancer. We should use a computed tomography in screening of lung cancer.
