ELCC 2023 | Stereotactic radiotherapy vs surgery in early-stage NCSLC

Paul Van Schil, MD, PhD, University Hospital Antwerp, Edegem, Belgium, offers his perspective on the longstanding debate regarding whether stereotactic radiotherapy or surgery is more efficacious in the treatment of patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NCSLC). Although Dr Van Schil believes treatment decisions should be made on the distinction of whether patients are functionally operable or inoperable, he emphasizes the capacity of sub lobal resections to provide accurate nodal staging and to determine precise tumor histology. This interview took place at the European Lung Cancer Congress 2023 in Copenhagen, Denmark.
