The objective of this study is to evaluate the trends of and outcomes associated with the use of minimally invasive lobectomy for stage I and II non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in the United States.The use of and outcomes associated with open and minimally invasive lobectomy for clinical stage I and stage II NSCLC from 2010 to 2017 in the National Cancer Database were assessed by multivariable logistic regression and propensity score matching.From 2010 to 2017, use of minimally invasive lobectomies increased for stage I NSCLC (multivariable-adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 4.52; 95% CI, 3.95-5.18; P.001) and stage II NSCLC (aOR 4.38; 95% CI, 3.38-5.68; P .001). In 2015, for the first time, more lobectomies for stage I NSCLC were performed by minimally invasive techniques (52.2%, n = 5647) than by thoracotomy (47.8%, n = 5164); and in 2017, more lobectomies for stage II NSCLC were performed by minimally invasive techniques (54.7%, n = 1620) than by thoracotomy (45.3%, n = 1,342). From 2010 to 2017, the conversion rates from minimally invasive to open lobectomy for stage I NSCLC decreased from 19.6% (n = 466) to 7.2% (n = 521; aOR 0.32; 95% CI, 0.23-0.43; P.001). Similarly, from 2010 to 2017, the conversion rates from minimally invasive to open lobectomy for stage II NSCLC decreased from 20% (n = 114) to 11.5% (n = 186; aOR 0.39; 95% CI, 0.21-0.72; P = .002).In the United States, for stage I and stage II NSCLC from 2010 to 2017, the use of minimally invasive lobectomy significantly increased while the conversion rate significantly decreased. By 2017, the minimally invasive approach had become the predominant approach for both stage I and stage II NSCLC. |
