Natural History
Complications
Prognosis
- The prognosis of Pancoast tumor depends on the stage of the tumor at diagnosis.[1][2][3]
- The presence of the following is associated with a poor prognosis among patients with Pancoast tumor :
- Horner syndrome
- Spread to the mediastinal lymph nodes
- Incomplete resection of tumor
- Involvement of supraclavicular lymph node
- Vertebral body invasion
- Metastasis to the brain
- Pancoast tumor is associated with a 5 survival rate as follows depending on the stage of disease:
Stage Of Pancoast Tumor | 5 year survival rate |
---|---|
IIB | 47% |
IIIA | 14% |
IIIB | 16% |
