Complications Associated With Lymphadenectomy (LAD) in Surgical Treatment of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
Russia1,000 participantsStarted 2025-08-14
Plain-language summary
Systemic mediastinal lymph node dissection is a standard step in radical surgery for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, it does not carry the risks associated with certain procedures (chylothorax, recurrent nerve palsy, diaphragmatic relaxation, intrapleural hemorrhage, injury to other chest organs (esophagus, great vessels), etc.). Data on their incidence and predictors in routine practice are limited.
Objective: To assess trends and characteristics of projects directly related to Lymph Node Dissection and to identify independent risk factors for their development.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Age ≥18 years.
* Clinical stage IA-IIIB NSCLC (TNM 8th edition), oncologically radical resection is planned: anatomical segmentectomy/lobectomy/bilobectomy/pneumonectomy (including sleeve resection).
* LND (systematic) is performed with mandatory inclusion of group 7 (subcarinal) lymph nodes.
* Signed informed consent from all study patients.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Small cell lung cancer, benign and metastatic tumors.
* "Wedge" surgery without any lymph node dissection.
* Nonemergency surgery; conversion is acceptable.
* Patients who cannot complete 30 days of observation (no contact, etc.) should be excluded prior to surgery.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
