AB A  60-year-old  male  has  a  6-cm  right  apical  lung  mass  that  invades  the  chest  wall.  He  has  chronic  obstructive  pulmonary  disease  (COPD)  and  smokes  1  pack  of  cigarettes  per  day.The  mass  is  biopsied  by  computed  tomographic  (CT)–guided  core  needle  and  is  positive  for  adenocarcinoma  of  the  lung.  The  pathology  shows  non–small  cell  lung  cancer  (NSCLC)  of  the  lung.Positron  emission  tomography  (PET)  shows  one  ipsilateral  PET-positive,  non-bulky  medastinal  lymph  node  that  is  pathologically  positive  on  mediastinoscopy.  Magnetic  resonance  images  (MRI)  of  the  brain  and  neck  are  negative  for  metastases  or  extension  into  the  plexus.
