Abstract
Surgery for lung cancer has evolved dramatically over the years. Although 5-year survival for patients with lung cancer remains low, new surgical techniques have increased survival rates for different stages of lung cancer. The article reviews the stages of lung cancer, the different surgical techniques used to treat lung cancer, and the complications of those surgical techniques.
