TL;DR
The objective of this prospective study was to assess in 96 patients with resected nonsmall cell lung carcinoma the prevalence of both blood and lymphatic vessel invasion according to stage, as well as their prognostic value for disease free and overall survival.
Abstract
The prevalence of BVI and LVI appeared high in patients with NSCLC, especially those with advanced pTNM stages. LVI was predictive of poor outcome, both time to recurrence and death.

It is suggested that even small peripheral tumors without any regional lymph node metastasis have a relatively high rate of lymphatic vessel invasion and thus pose a potential risk of local recurrence after a limited resection, especially in a wedge resection of the tumor.
