Recurrence rate of stage ia invasive lung adenocarcinoma

The recurrence rate of stage ia invasive lung adenocarcinoma is low, around 5%.
Stage ia invasive lung adenocarcinoma belongs to the early stage, when the size of the tumor at the primary site is less than 1 cm, and there is no metastasis or spread of lymph nodes and distal organs, therefore, if radical surgery is taken in time, the cure rate can reach more than 95%, and the recurrence rate in the later stage is low, at about 5%.
However, there is still the risk of recurrence, so after surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy should be adopted according to the situation to remove the residual cancer cells and reduce the recurrence rate in the later stage, and at the same time, according to the doctor’s instruction, recurrence should be carried out in 3-6 months, and timely treatment should be carried out in case of recurrence.
