A predictive nomogram for lymph node metastasis in part-solid invasive lung adenocarcinoma: A complement to the IASLC novel grading system

ABSTRACT:

Background

The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) proposed a novel grading system for invasive lung adenocarcinoma, but lymphatic invasion was not evaluated. Meanwhile, the scope of lymph node dissection in part-solid invasive lung adenocarcinoma (PSILA) is still controversial. Therefore, this study aims to explore preoperative risk factors for lymph node metastasis in PSILA, to provide reference for intraoperative dissection of lymph nodes.

Methods

From 2018 to 2020, clinical data of patients (stage cN0) consecutively diagnosed as PSILA were retrospectively analyzed and classified according to the novel grading system. Logistic regression was conducted to screen the clinicopathological factors of lymph node metastasis in PSILA.
