The five-year recurrence rate of early microinvasive lung adenocarcinoma is only about 10%.
Microinvasive lung adenocarcinoma belongs to very early stage lung cancer, in which the cancer cells only infiltrate the submucosal layer and there is no lymph node metastasis or distant metastasis. Generally speaking, tumor tissue and cancer cells can be completely removed through radical surgery, and the patient can recover without postoperative radiotherapy or chemotherapy, and the five-year recurrence rate is only about 10%, which is relatively low overall.
However, the specific recurrence rate will be different for each person due to differences in physical condition and postoperative care, so it is suggested that everyone should do a good job in postoperative checkup and follow-up, and actively take targeted treatment once abnormalities are found.
