As for CP for LC, according to data from 10 studies with a sufficient sample size, 5-year survival was under 30% in four studies, 30–40% in additional three studies, whilst in three studies it was over 40%. The evidence reveals slightly (38% vs. 41%) to significantly (44.6% vs. 29.2%) better survival for second primaries, vs. LC recurrence. Based on around 12% reported operative mortality and },
