The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term outcomes of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) major pulmonary resection in patients with stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Of the 411 stage I patients, 318 (77.4%) underwent complete VATS (c-VATS), while 89 (21.7%) underwent assisted VATS (a-VATS). There were no intraoperative deaths. There were three deaths (0.7%) within 30 postoperative days. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 95.1% (95% CI, 92.97.3%), 83.1% (95% CI, 79.27.0%), and 73.4% (95% CI, 68.18.7%), respectively. Univariate analysis by log-rank test revealed that tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage, primary tumor (pT) status, and type of resection were statistically significant factors affecting overall survival (OS; P=0.029, P=0.025, and P=0.005, respectively). Less acute TNM stage and less extensive resection were significantly predictive for longer OS by multivariate analysis as well (P=0.024 and P=0.006, respectively). In experienced hands, c-VATS or a-VATS can be considered as an alternative to traditional incision in patients with stage I NSCLC. Lower TNM stage and less extensive resection were significantly predictive for better OS. A prospective randomized controlled study on a larger scale is required to reach definitive conclusions regarding the efficacy of VATS relative to other techniques.
