Hi,I recently had my biopsy at Mayo and diagnosed with NSCLC adenocarcinoma 1A peripheral nodule.Ofcourse this is shocking to me I soent months searching online for every other thing that this could possibly be and hoping it was anything but this. The surgeon suggested doing a wedge resecrion with ample margins, I think if thiks were a GGO or minimally invasive I would feel more at ease.The Dr, said we could also do lobectomy.After reseacrching Im concerned because of the OS with wedge, Has any of you been in a similar situation? If so what did you do and how did it go?
So happy to be able to share with all of you.Thanks,@lilly2

@lilly2, I'd like to bring you into this discussion with other members of the Lung Cancer group who have multifocal adenocarinoma like @jamineibs @merpreb @lls8000 @sakota @meka @linda10 and others. They may be able to share their surgical experiences and the options they had.

Lilly, When do you have to decide between a lobectomy or a wedge resection?
