Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer


(adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and large cell carcinoma)




85% of all lung cancers

1- Lobectomy with ipsilateral mediastinal dissection (if can't resect do stereotactic ablative radiotherapy)


2 - Lobectomy + adjuvant chemo


3 - consolidation chemo-radiation


4 - Chemotherapy + palliative radiation



TNM Staging

N1 - Metastasis in ipsilateral peribronchial and/or ipsilateral hilar nodes and intrapulmonary nodes, including involvement by direct extension


N2 - Metastasis in ipsilateral mediastinal and/or subcarinal node


N3 - Metastasis in contralateral mediastinal, contralateral hilar, ipsilateral or contralateral scalene node, or supraclavicular node

Stage 1a



Stage 1b




Stage 2



Surgical resection




Surgical resection +/- chemo




Surgical resection + adjuvant chemo




(radiation if no resection for 1 and 2)
