Lung cancer ranks first in the cancerous morbidity and mortality rate around the world. With the popularity of low-dose CT scans and the aging of society, the diagnostic rate of early-staged lung cancer in the elder has increased significantly. However, it poses a serious challenge to the selection of surgical strategies for elderly patients of early-staged lung cancer due to the decline in organ function accompanying the aging, the combination of various chronic diseases and underlying senile syndrome. Inappropriate surgical strategies can significantly affect postoperative prognosis and long-term survival. Therefore, this article reviews the preoperative risk factors and surgical strategies affecting the long-term survival of elderly patients with early-stage NSCLC(non-small cell lung cancer), thus increasing the clinician’s awareness of elderly NSCLC, which is of great significance to help make reasonable surgical strategies and improve the prognosis.
