A new TNM staging system was proposed and the previous system has been
revised recently. To evaluate the new TNM staging system for lung cancer,
we analyzed records of 1737 patients who underwent pulmonary resection at
the National Cancer Center Hospital, Tokyo. With regard to clinical stages,
three patients had occult carcinoma; 821 patients had stage I disease; 248
patients, stage II; 465 patients, stage IIIA; 82 patients, stage IIIB; and
118 patients, stage IV. The 5-year survival rates for the respective stages
were 50.1% for stage I, 31.2% for stage II, 20.2% for stage IIIA, 5.1% for
stage IIIB, and 7.9% for stage IV. In terms of postoperative stages, four
patients were classified in stage 0, 536 in stage I, 221 in stage II, 559
in stage IIIA, 159 in stage IIIB, and 258 in stage IV. The 5-year survival
rates were as follows: stage I, 65.0%; stage II, 42.9%; stage IIIA, 22.2%;
stage IIIB, 5.6%; and stage IV, 7.5%. In both the clinical stage and the
postoperative stage, there were significant prognostic differences between
stage I and stage II, stage II and stage IIIA, and stage IIIA and stage
IIIB, but there was no significant difference in 5-year survival rates
between stage IIIB and stage IV.
