The N2 involvement remains a matter of debate because of its not yet well-classified heterogeneity. Regarding anatomy, the Mountain and Dresler's regional LN classification for lung cancer staging remains the reference. Different studies classified IIIA-N2 disease into 4 groups, in addition to the skip-N2 phenomenon: minimal-N2, N2 single station, N2 multiple stations, and bulky-N2.
