Factors affecting prognosis in patients diagnosed with epithelioid pleural mesothelioma who underwent surgery
Key Points
To investigate factors that influence survival prognosis in patients with epithelioid pleural mesothelioma following surgical intervention.
Analysis of cancer grading systems including nuclear and tumor grades.
Retrospective review of clinical data from surgical cases.
Pathological grading was identified as the strongest independent prognostic factor.
Both nuclear grade and tumor grade significantly influenced survival outcomes.
Abstract
Pathological grading, represented by either nuclear grade or tumor grade, is the strongest independent prognostic factor for survival in patients with epithelioid PM.
