title: [Evaluation of the effectiveness of postoperative radiotherapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer].
abstract: An analysis of 75 patients with non-small cell lung cancer that underwent post-surgical teleradiotherapy was carried out. The authors have shown it to be of little value in stage III B patients and in patients with metastases to regional lymph nodes and in whom the surgical procedure was not radical. 17.9% of stage III A patients were cured, 61.1% of stage II. Postsurgical radiotherapy was very efficient in patients without metastases to regional lymph nodes (61.5%--3 year survival).
