Hi,
They discovered a 8 mm lung nodule in 2020 when I had to have heart triple bypass. Nodule grew slowly and I had a biopsy in 2023 when it had grown to about 14 mm. . It was benign so it ws decided to watch and wait. Had another biopsy in 2025 and it was 19 mm and was now dotatate + and diagnosed as NET. Oncologists have recommended right lower lobe lobectomy but that has now been delayed due to heart issues and surgical risk I am now supposed to have a cardiac catheterization to determine if it is safe to undergo lobectomy. No one has ever mentioned ablation as an alternative. Lung Net specialist said treatment with radiation not as effective . Please suggest other options beside a risky lobectomy due to heart issues. Age 76. Thanks
