In 2 patients with stage I lung cancer, tumors recurred at their resection lines 10 years after the original surgical resections. These cases suggest that the prognosis of late cancer occurrences after resected primary lung malignancies might be related to the interval of time between primary and subsequent cancers rather than to their categorization as recurrent or metachronous cancers.
在2例I期肺癌患者中，肿瘤在初次手术切除10年后于切除线处复发。这些病例表明，原发性肺恶性肿瘤切除术后晚期癌症发生的预后可能与原发性癌症和后续癌症之间的时间间隔有关，而非与它们被归类为复发性癌症或异时性癌症有关。
