Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) survivor is increasing as developing early diagnosis and perioperative management. Despite multidisciplinary treatment, Surgery is the primary treatment option for cure in NSCLC. The patients with lung cancer who underwent surgery have limitation of pulmonary function and high risk of co-morbidities. Perioperative physical activity has been shown to reduce symptoms and prevent complications, improve long term quality of life after surgery. But validated exercise regimen has not been established for lung cancer patients. Therefore, Evidence-based guideline focusing on lung cancer after surgery is needed.
