Pathology Update

Sharon Myers, (PA for Dr. Rice) called today with a more indepth pathology report. Dale's tumor measured 3.5 cm and was a squamous cell carcinoma. The lymph node removed scored as a 2. (T2N1M1 or Stage 2B) Recommended meeting with the Thoracic Oncologist (Dr. Tsao on Feb. 13th). Margins on primary tumor were "close". Not sure exactly what that means, will ask more questions next week at Dale's appointment.
