Age is not absolutetaboo of elderly patients with lung cancer surgery, preoperativecollecting medical history in detail, the physiological andpsychological status in patients with a good understanding,reasonable operation method choice, can make old age get goodoutcomes for patients with non-small cell lung cancer; Forelderly patients with non-small cell lung cancer, its treatmentis not a single surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy ortargeted therapy, requires a combination of patients situation,formulate reasonable comprehensive treatment scheme.
