Abstract | OBJECTIVES: METHODS: We assessed patients who underwent LG with (n=185) or without (n=1204) NAC between 1997 and 2013. We used propensity score matching to evaluate perioperative short-term outcomes and long-term outcome. RESULTS: We used propensity score matching by patient background and treatment-rerated factors to establish two groups of 157 patients with or without NAC. There were no significant differences in perioperative short-term outcomes or long-term outcome between the groups. CONCLUSIONS: LG for selected patients with NAC is feasible and safe but has no long-term survival benefit.
