Video-assisted Thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy for lung cancer does not induce a procoagulant state
Background Changes in the coagulation system in patients undergoing surgery for lung cancer have been sparsely investigated and the impact of the surgical trauma on the coagulation system is largely unknown in these patients. An increased knowledge could potentially improve the thromboprophylaxis regimes. The aim of this study was to assess the coagulation profile evoked in patients undergoing ...
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 کاملTowards a standardized approach for video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy.
There is little doubt that standardization of care tends to improve outcomes and costs. Along this line, the adoption of the anterior approach for video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy described by McElnay et al. [1] in this issue of the EJCTS has led in their experience to an increased resort to VATS lobectomy and shorter hospitalizations. Although the value of the anterior app...
متن کاملVideo-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for locally advanced lung cancer.
First described over two decades ago, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is now well established for the treatment of early stage non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) (1-6). Thoracoscopic approaches are preferred for many common thoracic procedures because of their predictable salutary effect on outcomes likely brought about by perioperative pain reductions. As widespread surgeon expe...
متن کاملVideo-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy or open lobectomy for non-small-cell lung cancer? Minimizing selection bias in observational studies.
We have read with interest the paper by Hanna et al. [1], comparing oncological outcomes between video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy and open lobectomy for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) using propensity score matching, to minimize selection bias in the retrospective cohort in their hospital. To date, more and more surgeons have performed VATS lobectomy for early NSCLC and...
