44 TEMLA/VAMLA Caveat Can create hilar fibrosis that can affect dissection later

45 Summary 1 Mediastinoscopy is safe and effective for many lung cancer scenarios but not always applied Current preference Confirmation of Nodal Status before resection in medium risk noninduction patients (+/- EBUS)

46 Summary 2 TEMLA/VAMLA Preferences (1) Induction patients: EBUS for staging, Then Chemo +/- XRT Then TEMLA/VAMLA at time of resection VATS for the Level 5,6 modes (2) Unfavorable biology patients

47 TEMLA/VAMLA Conclusions Stages patients better than thoracotomybased approaches Enhances dissection and its extra time is offset by limiting VATS lymphadenectomy Therapeutic for some tumors???
