The first goal is complete extirpation of the cancer itself; the second is complete mediastinal staging. The latter determines the extent and type of further therapy, that is, chemotherapy with or without radiation therapy. In addition, even if the patient is not a candidate for adjuvant therapy, lymph node staging determines prognosis.
