AB A  73-year-old  gentleman  with  a  past  medical  history  of  chronic  obstructive  pulmonary  disease  (COPD),  hypertension  (HTN),  and  a  50  pack-year  cigarette  smoking  history  presents  to  your  office  after  a  screening  computed  tomographic  (CT)  scan  found  a  1-cm  mass  in  the  right  lung  lower  lobe.  His  primary  care  physician  orders  a  percutaneous  biopsy,  which  returns  as  small  cell  lung  cancer  (SCLC).  What  further  workup  does  this  patient  need?  Which  subgroup  of  patients  would  be  surgical  candidates?
