Abstract
The effectiveness of SABR was the same for the elderly as for the average-age population according to lung cancer-specific survival and time-to-progression. It also poses no increased toxicity. Compared with the historical outcomes with surgery in the elderly, SABR outcomes can be considered comparable for stage I-II disease but with less morbidity.
