Question about VATS lung biopsy
In order that we can get enough lung tissue sample to aid diagnosis the consultant wants to have a
VATS
lung biopsy done, rather than a thorascopic lung biopsy. He is referring me to a thoracic surgeon at the Golden Jubilee Hospital. I'm just wondering if anyone has had this done?

Had an upper left lobectomy November using
vats
and 2 weeks later got a definite diagnosis of lung cancer. Pathological report staged it at a pt2n0m0, poorly differentiated sarcomatoid pleomorphic carcinoma (still a bit in the dark at what that means).
