resectable /unresectable

German translation: resektierbar/ nicht resektierbar /// resektabel/irresektabel

English to German translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical: Oncology / Non-small-cell lung carcinoma
English term or phrase: resectable /unresectable
borderline resectable / unresectable Stage III NSCLC patients.

Please can someone tell me how resectable /unresectable is translated in oncology in Germany?

I have found various translations:
"resezierbar / inoperabel" or "resektabel/nicht resektabel"

German translation:resektierbar/ nicht resektierbar /// resektabel/irresektabel
Explanation:
https://kofam.ch/it/portale-snctp/ricerca-di-sperimentazioni...
Der Begriff Resektabilität wird vor allem in der Tumorchirurgie verwendet und bedeutet "chirurgische Entfernbarkeit". Das entsprechende Adjektiv ist resektabel.

Das Gegenteil der Resektabilität ist die Irresektabilität.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Uyuni, thank you for the many source links. It's very helpful. It seems that German oncologists use both operabel/inoperabel and resektabel/irresektabel. As mentioned above, I'm not sure why the English operable/inoperable wasn't used but in this case, I will stick with the resectable. Many thanks again.

agree  Steffen Walter: Ist meine Präferenz, aber auch "(nicht) resezierbar" und "(ir)resektabel" bzw. "(nicht) resektabel" wären möglich.

agree  Steffen Walter: Bei der Adjektivbildung mit "-bar" ist allerdings "(nicht) resezierbar" gängiger. / Interessant, das ist für mich genau andersherum. Vgl. das Substantiv-Verb-Paar "[Re]sektion"/"[re]sezieren" (aber eben nicht "[re]sektieren").

  -> Danke! Ja, "resezierbar" ist gängiger (aber für mich weniger einleuchtend) siehe Diskussionsbeitrag // gängiger, aber auch weniger spezifisch
