Abstract
Background The relationship between operative invasiveness and the prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who have undergone surgery has been controversial. Methods Clinical data were analyzed for 463 NSCLC patients. Operative invasiveness was defined by wound length, operation time, and the postoperative C-reactive protein (postCRP) level. The operative approach was divided into video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) and thoracotomy. Results The wound length and operation time were significantly correlated with the postCRP level (correlation coefficient (CC) = 0.39, p < 0.01; CC = 0.54, p < 0.01, respectively). The postCRP level in the VATS group was significantly lower than that in the thoracotomy group (12.2 mg/dl vs 20.58 mg/dl, p < 0.01). The relapse-free survival differed significantly based on wound length (p < 0.01), operation time (p = 0.01), CRP level (p < 0.01), and operative approach (p < 0.01). The carcinoembryonic antigen level (hazard ratio [HR], 1.58; p = 0.02), pathological stage (pStage) (HR, 2.57; p < 0.01), vascular invasion (HR, 1.95; p = 0.01), and preoperative CRP level (preCRP) (HR, 1.91; p < 0.01) were identified as significant prognostic factors for relapse-free survival in a multivariate analysis. Furthermore, the multivariate analysis showed that smoking history (HR, 2.36; p = 0.03), pStage (HR, 3.26; p < 0.01), and preCRP level were significant prognostic factors for overall survival. Conclusion Preoperative CRP level was associated with poor prognosis. Although the VATS approach might be less invasive procedure for NSCLC patients, operative invasiveness does not affect the prognosis.

PREOPERATIVE ENDOBRONCHIAL SANITATION AS PREPARATION FOR THORACIC INTERVENTIONS. EUREKA: HEALTH SCIENCES 2020. [DOI: 10.21303/2504-5679.2020.001188] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim – to study the effectiveness of endoscopic photodynamic therapy as a preoperative preparation of the tracheobronchial tree in patients with lung cancer.
Materials and methods. The study included 181 patients with II-III stage of lung’s cancer. Diagnose of lung’s cancer was confirmed with a morphologically and concomitant endobronchitis. During the preoperative preparation, we used a technique developed by us introducing into the tracheobronchial tree an aqueous solution of brilliant green at concentration of 0.04 %, followed by irradiation of this solution with laser radiation with the wavelength of 0.63 μm (AFL-2 helium-neon laser) in an independent form and in combination with traditional anti-inflammatory therapy. Endoscopic endobronchial sanitation therapy was carried out by low-intensity radiation of the red part of the spectrum (λ=0.63–0.66 μm) in a pulsed mode, with a power of 12 mW.
Results. After 3–5 days of the start preoperative preparation and 1–2 sessions of endoscopic bronchosanation, the general state of patients was improved, the amount of sputum decreased and was changing from mucopurulent to mucous. To completely stop the clinical phenomena of endobronchitis, it was necessary to conduct 5-6 sessions of endoscopic photodynamic therapy according to our methodology, with the introduction of our method. In patients without pronounced clinical symptoms of concomitant chronic bronchitis, it was enough to complete only 3 sessions of bronchosanation.
Conclusion. Endoscopic photodynamic bronchosanation in the preoperative period in patients for correcting accompanying endobronchitis can significantly reduce or completely stop the clinical manifestations of endobronchitis in the shortest time and leads to a significant decrease in the number of endobronchial complications in surgical and combined treatment of lung cancer.

Abstract
SummarySurgical access trauma has important detrimental implications for immunological status, organ function and clinical recovery. Thoracic surgery has rapidly evolved through the decades, with the advantages of minimally invasive surgery becoming more and more apparent. The clinical benefits of enhanced recovery after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) may be, at least in part, the result of better-preserved cellular immunity and cytokine profile, attenuated stress hormone release and improved preservation of pulmonary and shoulder function. Parameters of postoperative pain, chest drain duration, hospital stay and even long-term survival are also indirect reflections of the advantages of reduced access trauma. With innovations of surgical instruments, optical devices and operative platform, uniportal VATS, robotic thoracic surgery and non-intubated anaesthesia represent the latest frontiers in minimizing trauma from surgical access.

Abstract
Increasing experience in single-incision video-assisted thoracoscopic (SIVATS) lung resections for lung cancer has made some sophisticated lung resections such as bronchial or vascular sleeve resections, chest wall resections and pneumonectomy possible. There are some case series published in medical literature about the feasibility and safety of multiportal video-assisted thoracic surgery pneumonectomy. However, in this prepubertal period of its evolution the literature data are still immature, and limited only to rare case reports or video presentations for SIVATS pneumonectomy for lung cancer. This article aims to discuss the technique, feasibility and place of SIVATS pneumonectomy in the management of non-small-cell lung cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Carbon-dioxide (CO2)-pneumothorax during minimally invasive surgery induces well-known metabolic changes. However, little is known about its impact on the central nervous system. The aim of this work is to evaluate the acute impact of CO2-pneumothorax over central cytokine response and its long-term effect on animal behavior. METHODS This is an experimental study where neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats are submitted to CO2-pneumothorax. Peripheral and central cytokine response was evaluated 24h after insufflation, and peripheral immune cell phenotyping was evaluated 24h and 4weeks post-insufflation. Progenitor cell survival was evaluated in the hippocampal dentate gyrus, and the behavioral analysis was performed in adulthood to test cognition, anxious-like, and depressive-like behavior. RESULTS Significantly increased IL-10 levels were observed in the cerebrospinal-fluid (CSF) of animals submitted to CO2-pneumothorax, while no differences were found in serum. Regarding pro-inflammatory cytokines, no differences were observed in the periphery or centrally. CO2-pneumothorax event did not alter the survival of newborn cells in the hippocampal dentate gyrus, and no impact on long-term behavior was observed. CONCLUSIONS Neonatal animals submitted to CO2-pneumothorax present acutely increased CSF IL-10 levels. The CO2-pneumothorax seems to result in no significant outcome over neurodevelopment as no functional behavioral alterations were observed in adulthood.

Advantages of wound retractor device versus rigid trocar at camera port in video-assisted thoracic surgery-a single institution experience. J Vis Surg 2018; 4:66.

Abstract
Background rigid trocars are widely adopted in video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS), despite some disadvantages: (I) cannula strong pressure on intercostal nerve stimulating postoperative pain; (II) limited movement of thoracoscopic devices on their fulcrum when extreme acute angles with the chest wall are needed. Wound retractor (WR) device, designed for laparoscopic surgery, it is also used in VATS, but to protect mini-thoracotomy. We compared the use of extra-small WR versus rigid trocar at camera port that is the most painful thoracostomy. The aim was to determine if WR is associated with less postoperative pain and better scope maneuverability. Methods This is a single institution prospective study recorded and approved by ethics committee at our hospital. From October 2016 to June 2017, we enrolled 40 patients (statistical power 88%), randomized into two different groups. Group A (20 patients) underwent VATS lung resection using WR at camera port, group B (20 patients) using rigid trocar. Intra-operative data collected were maximum acute angle obtained between the camera and chest wall and chest wall thickness. Pain was measured by numerical analog scales (NAS) at 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after surgery. We also measured total morphine consumption at 72 h administered by patient controlled analgesia (PCA) system. Results No statistical significance was found in the demographic traits of the two groups (P=1). Statistically significant differences were found in favor of group A for both pain control, morphine consumption (P<0.001) and camera maneuverability (described as maximum acute angle obtained/chest wall thickness) (P<0.001). Conclusions patients who had WR showed less postoperative pain. Moreover, WR presented other advantages: camera protection by small bleeding from chest wall, adaptability with every chest wall thickness, absence of skin injury around the port. We suggest its use instead of rigid trocar.
