[1] summarised the importance of salvage surgery in treating local or loco-regional, post-surgical recurrences in patients with, mostly, early stage nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). While the feasibility of such an approach is indisputable, we believe that the readership of the European Respiratory Journal should be made aware of another treatment option already successfully used in this setting, namely, radiation therapy. This is especially important in patients with less favourable features, where secondary surgery may not be an option. Other authors have already shown that such patients comprise the majority of the patient population, with salvage surgery being possible in just 4% of cases. Taking this into consideration may give the treating physicians a better perspective and also enable a more meaningful discussion on optimising both the standard clinical and investigational approaches in any future endeavours in this setting.Radiation therapy remains an excellent treatment option for selected patients with post-resection recurrent NSCLC http://ow.ly/YZ6yc ER -
