Abstract

Abstract: Over the past six years, with the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer has meaningful advances, the 7th edition of lung cancer TNM staging is difficult to meet the current clinical needs. Therefore, International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) has information on 94 708 new patients diagnosed as lung cancer originated from 35 sources in 16 countries between 1999 and 2010, forming the eighth edition of TNM staging of lung cancer. The new edition of the classification will then be enacted in January 2017. The advantages of the new staging has higher value in prognosis and clinical guidance of different patients.

Key words: lung cancer, lung cancer stage, TNM classification
