Type and case volume of health care facility influences survival and surgery selection in cases with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer.
With the expansion of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) screening methods, the percentage of cases with early-stage NSCLC is anticipated to increase. Yet it remains unclear how the type and case volume of the health care facility at which treatment occurs may affect surgery selection and overall survival for cases with early-stage NSCLC. In this study, the investigators examine how type and case volume of health care facility influenced survival and surgery selection in cases with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer.
