Longer intervals between diagnosis of early-stage lung SCC and surgery are associated with worse survival. Although factors other than the timing of treatment may contribute to this finding, these results suggest that efforts to minimize delays beyond those needed to perform a complete preoperative evaluation may improve survival.
