2 Fig 1 Patients at low, intermediate (Int), and high risk for local recurrence were identified. (Neg=negative.). The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) ) Copyright © 1997 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

3 Fig 2 Patients at low, intermediate, and high risk for death were identified. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) ) Copyright © 1997 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

4 Fig 3 The freedom from local recurrence rates in the low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups were found to be well separated. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) ) Copyright © 1997 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

5 Fig 4 The survival rates in the low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups were found to be well separated. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) ) Copyright © 1997 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

6 Fig 5 Adjuvant irradiation was associated with a higher freedom from local recurrence rate in patients at both high risk (right; 46 patients) and intermediate risk (middle; 116 patients) for local recurrence. This also was true in low-risk (left; 61 patients) patients, although this difference was not statistically significant.

7 Fig 6 Adjuvant irradiation was associated with a higher survival rate in patients at both high risk (right; 65 patients) and intermediate risk (left; 149 patients) for death. There were only 9 patients in the low-risk category. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (97) ) Copyright © 1997 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions
