      Background:
      The appropriate protocol of postoperative surveillance for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is still controversial. The aim of this study is to evaluate the detectability of recurrence and the prognostic impact of the serum CYFRA 21-1 levels.

      Methods:
      We retrospectively reviewed 1076 patients who underwent surgical resection for NSCLC at Juntendo University Hospital, between January 2008 and May 2013. Patients with renal dysfunction were excluded.

      Results:
      Recurrence developed in 47 patients (30.5%) in high preoperative serum CYFRA 21-1 group, and 147 patients (16.0%) in normal preoperative serum CYFRA 21-1 group. High preoperative serum CYFRA 21-1 was related to the high recurrence rate (p<.0001) and the poor prognosis (p<.0001). In high preoperative serum CYFRA 21-1 group, 111 patients measured the serum CYFRA 21-1 level within the 1-3 months after surgery. Among them, 31 patients (27.9%) had an elevated serum CYFRA 21-1 level, and the poor prognosis (p<.0001) (Fig.). In 94 patients who measured the serum CYFRA 21-1 level during the follow-up period, 35 patients (37.2%) could detect recurrence by an elevated serum CYFRA 21-1 level before recurrence. Only for high preoperative serum CYFRA 21-1 group, 23 patients (67.6%) could detect recurrence.

      Conclusion:
      High preoperative serum CYFRA 21-1 was related to the high recurrence rate and the poor prognosis. In addition, high early-postoperative (1-3 months after surgery) serum CYFRA 21-1 was related to the poor prognosis. Measuring the serum CYFRA 21-1 level during the follow-up period is useful in the detection of recurrence, but that rate is low.
