@ElliotServaisMD @DrewMoghanaki @BrendonStilesMD @RajaFlores @jdoningtonmd @bslotman It’s entertaining to “jab” each other and say surgery is better than sbrt and vice versa- personally I think it is great we have really good choices and can advise patients as to which is best for their particular situation

Wow this is an important result and a bit surprising. Reinforces the nihilistic stance about this disease.

@TylerSbrt @DrewMoghanaki @tssmn @ewakeam @BrendonStilesMD @biniamkidaneMD @maraantonoff Agree I am by no means saying all stage 3 patients should be considered for surgery. BUT if surgery is possible, shouldn’t patients be offered a chance at 91% survival rather than defaulting to pacific regimen???

@FarhoodFarjah @JVelottaMD @biniamkidaneMD @SBroderickMD @LisaBrownMD @ElliotServaisMD @SethBKrantz @leahbackhusmd @DavidCookeMD @BTongMD @ekslim @ShandaBlackmon VIOLET is a great trial and tremendous accomplishment. I interpret it that differences are not massive and with use of ERAS (not described in violet paper) differences ERASed (based on uva experience)

And who knows how much 💰and no pharma sponsorship. Not practical to expect ANOTHER trial to compare wedge and segment.
