Figures & data

Table 1 Baseline characteristics of patients with resected early-stage NSCLC

Table 2 Recurrence patterns of patients with resected early-stage NSCLC

Figure 1 Preoperative percutaneous needle biopsy and bronchoscopic biopsy did not increase recurrence incidence in NSCLC patients.

Notes: (A) DFS curves for patients who had percutaneous needle biopsy or intraoperative biopsy. (B) DFS curves for patients who had bronchoscopic biopsy or intraoperative biopsy.

Abbreviations: DFS, disease-free survival; IOB, intraoperative biopsy; NSCLC, non-small-cell lung cancer; PNB, percutaneous needle biopsy.
