[Prognosis factors after lung stereotactic body radiotherapy for non-small cell lung carcinoma]

Lung cancer is the fourth most common cancer in France with a prevalence of 30,000 new cases per year. Lobectomy surgery with dissection is the gold standard treatment for T1-T2 localized non-small cell lung carcinoma. A segmentectomy may be proposed to operable patients but fragile from a respiratory point of view. For inoperable patients or patients with unsatisfactory pulmonary function tests, local treatment with stereotactic radiotherapy may be proposed to achieve local control rates ranging from 85 to 95% at 3-5 years. Several studies have examined prognostic factors after stereotaxic pulmonary radiotherapy. We conducted a general review of the literature to identify factors affecting local control.
