Abstract

Survival curves for 173 patients with pathologic Stage I and II bronchial carcinoma were calculated. These curves demonstrated far too much heterogeneity in patients with pathological Stage I disease. We recommend that the American Joint Committee Staging System be modified so that patients with T₁N₀ tumors are classified as Stage I disease and patients with T₁N₁, T₁N₀ and T₂N₁ tumors are classified as Stage II disease.
