That’s unfortunate that tiny tumor is impacting two lobes. I’ve read about partial lobe removal so I wonder if they can just take part of each lobe preserving as much healthy lung tissue as possible? I also read that in time the remaining lobes can expand into the vacant area.

The waiting and anticipation is always so hard. Praying for you.

@californiazebra yes I'm hoping it's something like that I wonder if it's a typical tumor should I worry about it turning atypical
