Most of the right upper lung nodules can be operated for a second time, but very few right upper lung nodules are malignant with systemic metastasis and second operation is not recommended.
1. The majority of right upper lung nodules can be operated twice, even if the first right upper lung nodule is malignant, regardless of whether the second right upper lung nodule is benign or malignant, if there is no obvious contraindication to surgery, it is still feasible to operate on the right upper lung nodule for the second time.
2. However, very few second right upper lung nodules are malignant and associated with systemic metastasis, which is a contraindication to surgery, and second surgery is not recommended.
It is recommended to go to the hospital for further counseling or treatment to determine whether the right upper lung nodule is amenable to a second surgery.
