Seeing a T2aN1M0 post lobe and dissection with visceral pleural extension and 1 Level 11 node. Adjuvant chemo. Anyone this there is a call for PORT in this histology different than regular NSCLC?

I can't find much but small case series, etc...

Nope. Just more aggressive systemically

No data to support it. So no.

Agreed. Not sure about the specifics of sarcomatoid features but it's still a carcinoma so I would treat it as NSCLC, which as you know the answer is no.
