Factors affecting accuracy of clinical staging in resectable non‐small cell lung cancer in a real‐world study

The clinical staging of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is well known to be related to their prognosis. However, there is usually a discrepancy between clinical staging and pathological staging. There are few analyses of clinical staging accuracy in patients with NSCLC. We compared the concordance rate between clinical and pathological staging of NSCLC and evaluated factors affecting the accuracy in real-world data.
