We evaluated the outcomes of this practice in our local MDT.<br \/>\nMethods: We performed a retrospective review of 84 patients with curatively resectable single lung lesions who underwent surgical resection from January 2017 to December 2018 without histological diagnosis.<br \/>\nResults: Malignancy was confirmed in 68\/84 (81%) patients. 57\/68 patients were diagnosed with a primary lung malignancy and 11\/68 with metastatic disease. Figures 1 and 2 show significant and non significant differentiators determined by the chi squared test.<br \/>\nConclusion: These results support the use of spiculated and \/ or irregular lesion appearance along with SUV uptake &gt;=2.5 as significant pre-histology differentiators of malignant and benign lesions. Neither past history of cancer nor size of lesion in isolation were predictive of malignancy. Our study gives further evidence that a direct-to-surgery approach is a suitable treatment option for appropriate suspicious nodules.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/erj.ersjournals.com\/content\/58\/suppl_65\/OA2640\">Link to abstract<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Type of publication: Conference abstract Author(s): *Manoj Marathe, *Tinaye Mandishona, *Harmesh Moudgil, *Nawaid Ahmad, *Emma Crawford, *Annabel Makan, *Koottalai Srinivasan Citation: European Respiratory Journal 2021 58 Suppl 65, OA2640 Abstract: Introduction: The selective resection of suspicious nodules and masses without<span class=\"ellipsis\">&hellip;<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"read-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/2022\/02\/21\/direct-to-surgery-treatment-of-suspected-lung-cancer-results-from-a-uk-lung-cancer-multidisciplinary-team-mdt-2021\/\">Read more <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Direct to surgery treatment of suspected lung cancer \u2013 results from a UK lung cancer multidisciplinary team (MDT) (2021)<\/span><span class=\"meta-nav\"> &#8250;<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<p><!-- end of .read-more --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[200],"tags":[979,216,353,228],"class_list":["post-6821","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-staff-publication","tag-979","tag-lung-cancer","tag-oncology","tag-surgery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6821","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6821"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6821\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6826,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6821\/revisions\/6826"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6821"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6821"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.library.sath.nhs.uk\/research\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6821"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
