Abstract

It is performed univariate and multivariate analysis of factors affecting the overall cancer survival of 613 patients of 70 years or older radically operated for non-small cell lung cancer. It is found that the main independent predictors of survival are T and N categories. These variables retain their importance in the overall multivariate model both types of survival, and the variable T - in separate multivariate models for samples stratified by category N. The presence of diabetes dramatically reduced both types of survival. Among patients without regional metastases women had a higher survival rate. The age of the operated patients older than 70 years had no significant independent effect on survival.
