Establishment and validation of a clinicopathological prediction model for postoperative recurrence of stage IA lung adenocarcinoma

With the popularization of low-dose spiral computed tomography (CT), an increasing number of stage IA lung cancers have been discovered. Patients with stage IA lung adenocarcinoma who undergo radical surgical resection tend to have a favourable prognosis. However, A significant proportion of patients undergo postoperative recurrence and metastasis. The purpose of this study was to screen out the risk factors in patients with stage IA lung adenocarcinoma and establish a nomogram model to help clinicians identify high-risk patient groups.
