Best plenary session I have ever attended. All early stage lung cancer focused. CALGB140503: sublobar for peripheral <2 cm; impower 010: OS benefit for pdl1>50%; Nadim 2: nivo/chemo, surgery, nivo for cN2 resectable. Outstanding discussions- my brain is full!

Not enough info here. That could be umbilical hernia related to ascites, liver failure. Sister Mary Joseph’s sign is rare and more indicative of carcinomatosis. Need more history. And imaging….
