Abstract
Lung cancer is a medical and social problem. Pulmonary function parameters that were obtained from spirometry had a statistically significant influence on the overall survival of patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Aim of study: to establish the role of indicators characterizing the severity of airway obstruction in patients with non-small cell lung cancer stages I-III and to assess its effect on the survival of patients after surgical treatment. Material of study: the study included 303 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in stages I-III, who had been receiving treatment at the Minsk City Clinical Cancer Center from 2000 to 2018, the patients’ indicators of respiratory failure being determined and long-term results of treatment being monitored. Results and conclusion: after surgical treatment, the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate of patients with NSCLC in the absence of bronchial obstruction was 42.4%, and in case of bronchial obstruction of the III rd -IV th degree, the 5-year OS was 14.8% (p = 0.006).
