Abstract
Among patients with lung cancer approximately 44% have disease limited to the chest. Patients with early lesions treated surgically have better survival rates than those with more advanced primary disease or nodal involvement. Postoperative irradiation should reduce local or regional recurrence and hopefully reduce systemic relapse.
