Intentional wedge resection versus segmentectomy for ≤2 cm ground-glass-opacity-dominant non-small cell lung cancer: a real-world study using inverse probability of treatment weighting.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Whether wedge resection is oncological suitable for ground glass opacity (GGO)-dominant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) ≤2 cm is still debatable. The aim of this study is to investigate the short-term and long-term outcomes of intentional wedge resection and segmentectomy for those patients.

Materials and methods

This was a real-world study from one of the largest thoracic surgery centers in West China. Patients who underwent intentional wedge resection or segmentectomy for ≤2 cm CTR (consolidation-to-tumor) ≤0.5 NSCLC were consecutively included between December 2009 and December 2018. Data were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was used to balance baseline characteristics. Long-term outcome
