Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

Lung surgery is not effective in all types of lung cancers. It is useful when the tumor is in the early localized stage and unlikely to have spread. A thoracotomy is an incision made to open the chest to access vital organs during surgery. Resection is not possible after the thoracotomy.

So, the correct answer is option D.
