Popis: To investigate whether the volume doubling time is a preoperative predictor of lymph node metastasis of clinical stage IA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).The subjects of this retrospective study were 204 patients who underwent lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection for clinical stage IA NSCLC. We analyzed the relationship between lymph node metastasis and clinicopathological factors, including the volume doubling time.Lymph node metastasis developed in 24 (11.8%) patients. Multivariable analysis identified consolidation diameter (Odds ratio = 1.407; 95% confidence interval, 1.007-1.966, p = 0.046) and the solid-part tumor volume doubling time (Odds ratio = 0.982; 95% confidence interval, 0.973-0.991, p 0.001) as independent predictors of lymph node metastasis. The combination of a larger consolidation diameter ( 1.9 cm) and a shorter solid-part tumor volume doubling time ( 132 days) had sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 79.2%, 94.4%, and 92.6%, respectively.The consolidation diameter and solid-part tumor volume doubling time can be useful preoperative predictors of lymph node metastasis of clinical stage IA NSCLC.
