November is #LungCancerAwarenessMonth, dedicated to raising awareness and education of the disease. 🫁 Stanford thoracic surgeons and researchers such as Natalie Lui, are working to raise awareness about the importance of early lung cancer screening. ✨ow.ly/CJCx50U5sJA

Love this illustration showing different incisions and what structures can be reached from different incisions. If in doubt and if already in the OR for penetrating central injury, median sternotomy is the way to go.

Proud of our Lahey Hospital team for this contribution. We’ve refined our technique for emergency converting from robotic to thoracotomy over 10 yrs w/ testing in sim lab & real case experience. This is a safe, reproducible, and effective technique sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Advanced imaging from Stanford 3D & Quantitative Imaging Lab & Stanford Radiology played a critical role in diagnosing & planning treatment for a patient w/pectus excavatum. Thx to the collab w/3DQ, the imaging allowed Stanford Cardiothoracic Surgery in planning the surgery. 🫁 ow.ly/MTPK50Vw8jg

The study I have most anticipated from #ASCO2025 CTSurgSocMedNetwork General Thoracic Surgical Club Remember control arm was the 🏆 from ESOPEC- so Rx arm has outperformed that!! Leaves CROSS in the dust for adeno.

This is a major story from #ASCO25. Randomized phase 3 trial of time of day of immunotherapy infusion. Randomized to infusion before or after 3pm. Early infusion far superior: PFS 11.3 vs 5.7 HR 0.42, OS HR 0.45! Impactful, pragmatic, not costly. This should be a bigger story.

Lung cancer screening can save lives, but few eligible women have it done. Combining lung cancer screening w/mammogram could help, a study shows. Featured cover on Journal of Surgical Research. Authors inc Leah Backhus MD MPH FACS, Tiffany Yue, Lye-Yeng Wong MD, et al ow.ly/mwtb50W4waz

Check out this exciting new study led by Matthew Smeltzer Raymond Osarogiagbon, MBBS, FACP in JAMA Network Open!! Changing the USPSTF lung screening criteria from a 20-pack-year cutoff to a 20-year duration cutoff (Potter Criteria) greatly increases access to screening while maintaining screening
