Abstract
In experienced hands, mediastinoscopy in a complex mediastinum is safe. Preclusive mediastinal fibrosis is rare. Expected lymph node stations can be accessed, and the results strongly correlate with postresection pathology. Mediastinoscopy is valuable to evaluate the nodal response to therapy in the setting of combined modality therapy.
