Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation is a positive prognostic factor for survival in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In such patients, brain metastasis signifies negative outcomes. Patients with NSCLC brain metastasis that may benefit from neurosurgery is under investigation. We aim to investigate the impact of different mutation loci in surgically treated NSCLC brain...
