Abstract With the development of modern radiotherapy technology, the significance of postoperative radiotherapy in treating resectable stage ⅢA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer has been emphasized. At present, the value of postoperative radiotherapy has been controversial due to the lack of large-size prospective randomized controlled studies. A large number of retrospective studies have confirmed that the efficacy of postoperative radiotherapy is significantly correlated with different clinicopathological characteristics. In this article, the influencing factors of the efficacy of postoperative radiotherapy were analyzed, and the subgroup of patients receiving clinical benefits was discussed, aiming to achieve precise postoperative radiotherapy.
