Although thorough pathologic nodal staging provides the greatest prognostic information in patients with potentially curable non-small cell lung cancer, N1 nodal metastasis is frequently missed. We tested the impact of corrective intervention with a novel pathology gross dissection protocol on intrapulmonary lymph node retrieval. Retrospective review of consecutive lobectomy, or greater, lung resection specimens over a period of 15 months before and 15 months after training Pathologist's Assistants on the novel dissection protocol. 141 specimens were examined before and 121 specimens after introduction of the novel dissection protocol. The median number of intrapulmonary lymph nodes retrieved increased from 2 to 5 (p<.0001), and the 75th – 100th percentile range of detected intrapulmonary lymph node metastasis increased from 0 – 5 to 0 – 17 (p=.0003). In multivariate analysis, the extent of resection, examination period (pre- or post-intervention), and pathologic N1 (vs. N0) status were most strongly associated with a higher number of intrapulmonary lymph nodes examined. A novel pathology dissection protocol is a feasible and effective means of improving the retrieval of intrapulmonary lymph nodes for examination. Further studies to enhance dissemination and implementation of this novel pathology dissection protocol are warranted.
