Background and Objective: Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) comprises 85% of all lung cancers. Lung resection is the election treatment but surgery might have a significant impact on Quality of Life (QoL) and physical condition. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR), both before and after surgery, including aerobic and strength exercises, could reduce symptoms and morbidity and improve exercise capacity, pulmonary function and QoL. Aim: investigate the efficacy of intensive PR on exercise capacity for NSCLC patients surgically treated.

Abstract
Background and Objective: Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) comprises 85% of all lung cancers. Lung resection is the election treatment but surgery might have a significant impact on Quality of Life (QoL) and physical condition. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR), both before and after surgery, including aerobic and strength exercises, could reduce symptoms and morbidity and improve exercise capacity, pulmonary function and QoL. Aim: investigate the efficacy of intensive PR on exercise capacity for NSCLC patients surgically treated.
