The latest techniques and management strategies in cardiovascular and thoracic critical care and enhanced recovery after surgery for the entire care team.
Procedures to evaluate lymph nodes before lung cancer therapy, including endobronchial guided nodal aspiration and mediastinoscopy, can help diagnose and stage the patient effectively. Research findings demonstrate, however, that these procedures are underutilized overall or employed in a highly variable fashion. In this STS webinar, an expert panel of pulmonologists and thoracic surgeons discusses the changing role of pretreatment nodal staging to include diagnosis, staging, and acquisition of sufficient tissue for biomarker testing.
The STS Boot Camp is designed to provide an experiential foundation and hands-on practice in basic cardiothoracic operating skills. Resident participants will receive expert instruction and utilize simulators that enhance the learning experience by replic
During Peer Review Week, Annals Editor-in-Chief Joanna Chikwe, MD, FRCS, is joined by a panel of editors, editorial board members, and experts to highlight touchstones of publication ethics and how research drives quality.
Recent data from two large randomized studies of segmentectomy for small (≤2cm) peripheral non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment suggest a change is coming in the standard of care. In this STS webinar, an expert panel discusses how evolving robotic and imaging technologies are changing the landscape of treatment for early stage NSCLC. The session features a review of recent trials, advanced imaging, complex segmentectomy videos, and case scenarios.
