[PMID: 34563504 DOI: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2021.08.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2021] [Revised: 08/13/2021] [Accepted: 08/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy of segmentectomy for inner small-sized non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains unknown. We aimed to elucidate whether segmentectomy for inner small-sized NSCLC, defined using novel three-dimensional measuring method, yields feasible oncological outcomes compared to segmentectomy for outer lesions. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed patients with small-sized (<2cm) cN0 NSCLC who underwent segmentectomy between January 2007 and December 2020. Tumor centrality ratio, which was measured by using three dimensional reconstruction software, was evaluated, with the location of tumor origin confirmed pathologically. Cases with a ratio below and above 2/3 were allocated to the 'Inner group' and 'Outer group', respectively. Oncological outcomes were compared between the two groups. RESULTS Our cohort was divided into the 'Inner group' (n=75) and 'Outer group' (n=127). The proximal distance from a tumor exceeded 20 mm in all cases. Tumor centrality ratio was associated with the pathological origin of a tumor. The rate of unforeseen positive lymph node metastasis was significantly higher in the 'Inner group' (p=0.04). There were no significant differences in the 5-year recurrence free survival (RFS; 91% versus 87%, p=0.67). Univariate analysis identified age, consolidation/tumor ratio, the presence of ground-glass-opacity (GGO) and lymphovascular invasion, but not tumor centrality, as significant prognostic factors for RFS. In the multivariate analysis, the presence of GGO and lymphovascular invasion remained significant. CONCLUSIONS Regarding oncological outcomes, segmentectomy with a safety proximal distance could be feasible, even for inner small-sized NSCLC. Tumor invasiveness, not tumor centrality, may influence tumor recurrence. (242 words).

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognosis of the mediastinal fat tissue invasion in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients has not yet been clearly defined. The present study aimed to investigate the prognostic impact of the mediastinal fat tissue invasion in NSCLC patients. METHOD We analyzed 36 patients who were found mediastinal fat tissue invasion by pathological evaluation (mediastinal fat group) and 248 patients who were classified as T4-NSCLC according to the 8th TNM classification (T4 group; invasion of other mediastinal structures in 78 patients, ipsilateral different lobe satellite pulmonary nodule in 32 patients, and tumor diameter > 7 cm in 138 patients). RESULT Resection was regarded as complete (R0) in 255 patients (89.7%). Mediastinal fat group showed significantly higher incidence of incomplete resection (R1) and more left-sided tumors than the T4 group (p = 0.01, and p = 0.002, respectively). The survival was better in T4 group than mediastinal fat group (median 57 months versus 31 months), although it was not significant (p = 0.205). Even when only N0/1 or R0 patients were analyzed, the survival was not different between two groups (p = 0.420, and p = 0.418, respectively). 5-year survival rates for T4 subcategories (invasion of other structures, ipsilateral different lobe pulmonary nodule, and tumor diameter > 7 cm) were 39.4%, 41.9%, and 50.3%, respectively (p = 0.109). Multivariate analysis showed that age (p < 0.0001), nodal status (p = 0.0003), and complete resection (p < 0.0001) were independently influenced survival. CONCLUSION There is no significant difference in the prognosis between mediastinal fat tissue invasion and T4 disease in NSCLC patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to report on the influence of tumor lymphovascular invasion on overall survival and in patients with resected non-small cell lung cancer and identify prognostic factors for survival. METHODS This is a retrospective observational study of a consecutive series of patients who had surgical resection of non-small cell lung cancer in a single institution. The study covers a 3-year period. Overall survival was estimated by Kaplan-Meier method and multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship of lymphovascular invasion and other clinicopathologic variables. A multivariate regression was used to assess the relationship between tumor lymphovascular invasion and other clinical and pathologic characteristics. RESULTS A total of 524 patients were identified and included in the study. Two hundred twenty-five patients (43%) had tumors with lymphovascular invasion. Patients with tumor lymphovascular invasion had a lower overall survival (P < .0001). Tumor lymphovascular invasion was independently associated with visceral pleural involvement (P < .0001). In a multivariable model, lymphovascular invasion (hazard ratio [HR], 2.58; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.63-4.09; P < .0001), parietal pleural invasion (HR, 45.4; 95% CI, 2.08-990; P = .015), advanced age (HR, 1.028; 95% CI, 1.009-1.048; P = .004), and N2 lymph node involvement (HR, 1.837; 95% CI, 1.257-2.690; P = .002) were independent prognostic factors for lower overall survival. CONCLUSIONS Lymphovascular invasion is associated with a worse overall survival in patients with resected non-small cell lung cancer regardless of tumor stage. Parietal pleural involvement, N2 nodal disease, and advanced age independently predict poor overall survival.

Abstract
Introduction The rationale for oncologic surveillance following pulmonary lobectomy is to detect recurrent disease or a second primary lung cancer early enough so that an intervention can increase survival and/or improve quality of life. Therefore, we reviewed literature for international guidelines and reorganized these useful factors associated with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) recurrence as remedies in postoperative follow-up. Method The population of interest for this review was patients who had been treated with complete resection for primary NSCLC and were in follow-up. Result Guidelines on follow-up care for NSCLC vary internationally. Because of the production of progressive medical modalities, the current follow-up care should be corrected. Conclusion The specific follow-up schedule for computed tomography imaging may be more or less frequent, depending upon risk factors for recurrence. Many different predictors of postoperative recurrence may help to optimize the patient selection for specified surveillance guidelines and personalized adjuvant therapies to prevent possibly occult micrometastases and to get a better outcome.

Abstract
Background Lymphatic vessel invasion (LVI) exerts an important process in the progression and local spread of cancer cells. However, LVI as a prognostic factor for survival in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains controversial. Methodology/Principal Findings A meta-analysis of published studies from PubMed and EMBASE electronic databases was performed to quantity the effects of LVI on both relapse-free survival and overall survival for patients with NSCLC. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were used to assess the strength of these effects. This meta-analysis included 18,442 NSCLC patients from 53 eligible studies. LVI appeared in 32.1% (median; range, 2.8% to 70.9%) of tumor samples. In all, patients with LVI were 2.48 times more likely to relapse by univariate analysis (95% CI: 1.92–3.22) and 1.73 times by multivariate analysis (95% CI: 1.24–2.41) compared with those without LVI. For the analyses of LVI and overall survival, the pooled HR estimate was 1.97 (95% CI: 1.75–2.21) by univariate analysis and 1.59 (95% CI: 1.41–1.79) by multivariate analysis. Multivariate analysis showed a risk was 91% higher for recurrence (HR = 1.91, 95% CI: 1.14–2.91) and 70% higher for mortality (HR = 1.70, 95% CI: 1.38–2.10) in LVI-positive I stage patients compared with LVI-negative I stage patients. Subgroup analyses showed similar significant adjusted risks for recurrence and death in adenocarcinomas, and a significant adjusted risk for death in studies that utilized elastic staining with or without immunohistochemistry in defining LVI. Conclusions/Significance The present study indicates that LVI appears to be an independent poor prognosticator in surgically managed NSCLC. NSCLC patients with LVI would require a more aggressive treatment strategy after surgery. However, large, well-designed prospective studies with clinically relevant modeling and standard methodology to assess LVI are required to address some of these important issues.

Abstract
Background and Objective Blood vessel invasion plays a very important role in the progression and metastasis of cancer. However, blood vessel invasion as a prognostic factor for survival in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains controversial. The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between blood vessel invasion and outcome in patients with NSCLC using meta-analysis. Methods A meta-analysis of published studies was conducted to investigate the effects of blood vessel invasion on both relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) for patients with NSCLC. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were used to assess the strength of this association. Results A total of 16,535 patients from 52 eligible studies were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. In total, blood vessel invasion was detected in 29.8% (median; range from 6.2% to 77.0%) of patients with NSCLC. The univariate and multivariate estimates for RFS were 3.28 (95% CI: 2.14–5.05; P<0.0001) and 3.98 (95% CI: 2.24–7.06; P<0.0001), respectively. For the analyses of blood vessel invasion and OS, the pooled HR estimate was 2.22 (95% CI: 1.93–2.56; P<0.0001) by univariate analysis and 1.90 (95% CI: 1.65–2.19; P<0.0001) by multivariate analysis. Furthermore, in stage I NSCLC patients, the meta-risk for recurrence (HR = 6.93, 95% CI: 4.23–11.37, P<0.0001) and death (HR = 2.15, 95% CI: 1.68–2.75; P<0.0001) remained highly significant by multivariate analysis. Conclusions This study shows that blood vessel invasion appears to be an independent negative prognosticator in surgically managed NSCLC. However, adequately designed large prospective studies and investigations are warranted to confirm the present findings.
