Natural History

Complications

Prognosis

  • The prognosis of Pancoast tumor depends on the stage of the tumor at diagnosis.[1][2][3]
  • The presence of the following is associated with a poor prognosis among patients with Pancoast tumor :
    • Horner syndrome
    • Spread to the mediastinal lymph nodes
    • Incomplete resection of tumor
    • Involvement of supraclavicular lymph node
    • Vertebral body invasion
    • Metastasis to the brain
  • Pancoast tumor is associated with a 5 survival rate as follows depending on the stage of disease:
Stage Of Pancoast Tumor 5 year survival rate
IIB 47%
IIIA 14%
IIIB 16%
