Article and Video CATEGORIES
This is the first in a series of "uncut" videos that I'm starting that will focus on illustrative cases from my clinic that highlight some broader teaching points. This particular video is on the decision-making process that led me to recommend adjuvant chemotherapy for a patient who underwent surgery for a 3.5 cm lung adenocarcinoma without lymph node involvement. Though this size is under the threshold we often use for recommending post-operative chemo, which is 4 cm, her particular cancer had some other features that made me concerned it may represent a high enough risk to favor additional treatment, in combination with her overall good health and desire to pursue a more aggressive approach if there is a good rationale for it.
