Can surgery be performed for mid-stage lung cancer?

Lung cancer is a common cancer. Generally, there are no symptoms or the symptoms are not obvious in the early stage. Most patients are diagnosed in the middle and late stages. If there is no metastasis to other parts of the body, surgery can usually be performed. Comprehensive treatments such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy are required after surgery. If it is determined to be in the middle stage, surgical resection is still recommended. After resection, pathological examination and immunohistochemistry examination should be performed in time, and chemotherapy drugs should be used according to the examination results. Whether surgery can be performed for lung cancer in the middle stage depends on the degree of spread and metastasis of the patient's disease.
