What’s best for stage III NSCLC? Local control w definitive radiation or an R1 surgical resection?

@GraceHaMD presents NCDB data at #AATS2026 showing a long-term survival benefit to surgery over XRT, even with +margins.

⬆️ survival for R1+ pts as systematic therapies improve

@DrewMoghanaki @BrendonStilesMD @STS_CTsurgery @MontefioreNYC @EinsteinMed @MontefioreSurg Thank you for this point Dr. Moghanaki! Especially as we have observed higher rates of surgery for cN3 disease at academic research centers.

[Brendon Stiles @BrendonStilesMD]

Great feature from @STS_CTsurgery on work that will be presented by our outstanding @MontefioreNYC @EinsteinMed resident @GraceHaMD at STS Annual Meeting 2026!

Is all cN3 stage III NSCLC really "unresectable"?
