Wow! Sublobar resection (including wedge) are equivalent to lobectomy for stage I lung cancer <2cm. No difference in DFS or OS and similar rates of recurrence. #WCLC22
Likely new standard of care!

How do you manage locally advanced #lungcancer that requires a #sleeve lung resection? Neoadjuvant chemo or chemoradiation? We found that adding neoXRT ~5x assoc 90d mortality, omitting it does not compromise survival! #MedTwitter @tssmn @STS_CTsurgery https://t.co/fKg2OnU62G

@ElliotServaisMD @jdphillipsMD @DrRianCharles @TomVargheseJr @RajaFlores Multifactorial. Would be interesting to look into the details. Understaging in VATS patients might be one reason, and selection/behavioral bias (Percent of patients who continued to smoke post VATS maybe higher for some reason)...can think of many more
