	abstract = {Background: Segmentectomy has been widely used for small-sized non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The objective of this study is to determine the impact of number of harvested lymph nodes (LNs) on survival for patients undergoing segmentectomy.
Methods: The clinicopathologic data of patients undergoing segmentectomy for NSCLC from July 2011 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analysis.
Results: A total of 259 patients with NSCLC were eligible for analysis. Patients with harvested LN ≥6 had higher frequency of nodal metastasis in pathologic examination (9.4% vs. 1.5%, P=0.005). The 3-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) of patients with harvested LN ≥6 (90.2%) was significantly higher than that of patients with harvested LN },
