Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy combined with surgery for stage ⅢA NSCLC patients.Methods:Six patients with NSCLC who were diagnosed as ⅢA and received two cycles of neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy and surgery between September 2019 and January 2020 were described in this study.Results:Five of them experienced AEs during neoadjuvant therapy. All of them received surgery and achieved an MPR of 50%. No viable tumor cells were found in the tissues of one patient. One patient with a small bronchopleural fistula after lobectomy.Conclusion:Neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy combined with surgery for stage ⅢA NSCLC patients is safe and efficient. Long-term outcomes of neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy combined with surgery should be further validated.
