which one is the required surgery and which one is elective? A :lung cancer located in upper lobe of the lung B :acute purulent appendicitis

Hi, 

I think acute purulent appendicitis is definitely reqiured surgery, because original condition poses immedate risk for patient's life, while lung lobectomy surgery is one of the options for treating lung cancer - maybe chemo or radiation therapy can work in some cases, so that lobectomy gets done later, or depending on how the lung cancer develops.
