The oncological value of video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy for early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer.
We have read with interest the paper by Hanna et al. [1], who compared video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) with open lobectomy for Stage I and II non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with the aim of determining whether these techniques are oncologically equivalent. First of all, we congratulate the authors for the innovative statistical approach adopted. In fact, in order to investigate t...
متن کاملVideo-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery Lobectomy for Pulmonary Malignant Melanoma Metastasis.
Malign melanoma (MM) develops as a result of malign transformation of the melanocytes and constitutes 2-4% of all skin cancers, while being the most common cause of mortality among all skin cancers. In addition to other organs, distant organ metastases also include lung metastasis. A metastasectomy is an acceptable treatment option in cases of malign melanoma with isolated lung metastasis. The ...
متن کاملVideo-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy versus open lobectomy for clinical stage I non small cell lung cancer: a case-control study
This study aimed to compare outcomes following video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy (VATS) versus open lobectomy for clinical stage I non small cell lung cancer at a China center. Eighty-one consecutive patients who underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy from January 2007 to December 2013 were compared with 94 patients undergoing open surgery during the same time period. Patients we...
متن کاملVideo-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery for Early-stage Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Traditionally, thoracotomy was the most common thoracic surgical approach before the advent of minimally invasive devices. The malignant lesions can be fully exposed and resected, however, there are major concerns associated with post-operative and severe pulmonary complications and prolonged wound healing. This is largely due to massive surgical trauma and intraoperative loss of blood loss, al...
متن کاملSystematic review and meta-analysis of uniportal versus multiportal video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy for lung cancer.
BACKGROUND Uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has emerged as a less invasive alternative to the conventional multiportal approach in the treatment of lung cancer. The benefits of this uniportal technique have not yet been characterized in patients undergoing VATS lobectomy. This meta-analysis aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of uniportal and multiportal VATS lobectomy f...
