Single port training in Latin-America-first uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery masterclass in Santiago, Chile.

ABSTRACT: Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) surgery has become the standard technique in Thoracic Surgery since its introduction 20 years ago. Single port VATS appeared as the next step in its evolution, with rapid development since the first uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy (VATS lobectomy) by Dr. Diego Gonzalez-Rivas. During the last 5 years, the approach has been simplified, standardized and taught in many countries, courses, live surgery and dedicated programs, with reproducible results. Hands-on courses represent the best way to learn a new surgical technique, as it shortens learning curves and decreases complications. We present the first training course in single port VATS in our country, which became the first hands course in Thoracic Surgery in Chile.

Project description:Background:Cough is one of the shared complications after lung surgery. In this study, a prospective analysis was conducted for exploring the risk factors of persistent cough after uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic pulmonary resection. Methods:One hundred thirty-five patients with pulmonary nodules who underwent surgical treatment in the same surgical group from November 2019 to January 2020 were enrolled in this prospective study. The severity of cough and its impact on patients' quality of life before and after surgery were assessed by the Mandarin Chinese version of the Leicester cough questionnaire (LCQ-MC), and postoperative cough was tested by the cough visual analog scale (VAS) and cough symptom score (CSS). Risk factors of cough after pulmonary resection (CAP) were determined by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results:The incidence of postoperative cough was 24.4% (33 of 135 patients). Univariate analysis showed that gender (female), the surgical site (upper right), the resection (lobectomy), subcarinal lymph node dissection, postoperative acid reflux, length of hospitalization contributed to the development of CAP resection. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the resection (lobectomy) (OR 3.590, 95% CI: 0.637-20.300, P=0.017), subcarinal lymph node dissection (OR 4.420, 95% CI: 1.342-14.554, P=0.001), postoperative acid reflux (OR 13.55, 95% CI: 3.186-57.633, P<0.001) and duration of anesthesia (over 153 minutes, OR 0.987, 95% CI: 0.978-0.997, P=0.011) were independent risk factors for postoperative cough. Conclusions:The application of uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic techniques to several types of lung surgery are conducive to enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). Postoperative cough is related to an ocean of factors, the resection (lobectomy), subcarinal lymph node dissection, postoperative acid reflux, and duration of anesthesia (over 153 minutes) are independent high-risk factors for CAP resection. Trial registration:This study was registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04204148).

Project description:BACKGROUND:In recent years, the technique of uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery has been developed. As a new surgical method, its feasibility and safety have not been generally recognized. The aim of this study is to review the technology in the treatment of lung cancer patients in stage I to part of stage IIIa. METHODS:The clinical data of patients accepted thoracoscopic resection of lung cancer by a same medical group from May 2018 to March 2019 in The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were retrospectively analyzed. After remove of cases that did not meet the requirements, the patients were divided into uniportal group (55 cases) and biportal group (87 cases). The clinical data of the two groups were collected and statistically analyzed. RESULTS:All the 142 patients underwent lobectomy and systemic lymph node dissection. There is no perioperative death in both groups. There was no significant difference in age, location of tumors, pathological type, size of tumors and pathological tumor-node-metastasis (pTNM) staging between uniportal group and biportal group (P>0.05). The operation time [(167.65±43.85) min vs (181.71±51.28) min], the intraoperative bleeding volume [(57.45±50.19) mL vs (87.47±132.54) mL], the indwelling time of drainage tube [(4.82±2.82) d vs (5.84±3.43) d] and the hospital stay [(6.91±3.88) d vs (7.74±3.87) d] were less in uiportal group compared to biportal group, though no significant difference occurred (P>0.05 ). The total drainage volume of uniportal group was significantly lower than that of biportal group [(1,064.82±776.38) mL vs (1,658.71±1,722.38) mL], and the visual analogue score of 24 hours and 72 hours after operation [(4.73±0.73) points vs (5.25±0.74) points; (2.16±0.71) points vs (2.55±0.86) points] were lower in uniportal group (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer is safe and feasible for stage I to part of stage IIIa lung cancer patients.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (U-VATS) has recently emerged as an alternative procedure for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however, whether U-VATS has advantages over multiportal VATS (M-VATS) remains unknown. METHODS:We performed a systematic review of two databases (Pubmed and Web of Science) to search comparative studies of U-VATS and M-VATS anatomical pulmonary resection for NSCLC. Operative time, blood loss, number of resected lymph nodes, drainage duration, length of postoperative stay, pain in postoperative day 1(POD1) and conversion rates were retrieved to estimate the comparison of outcomes. A subgroup analysis stratified by study type (propensity-matched analysis and randomized-controlled trial versus non-propensity matched analysis) was performed. RESULT:A total of 20 studies with 4142 patients were included in this meta-analysis. U-VATS was performed on 1869 patients, whereas the other 2173 patients underwent M-VATS. This meta-analysis showed that there was no significant difference in operative time (U-VATS: 146.48?±?55.07?min versus M-VATS: 171.70?±?79.40?min, P?=?0.81), blood loss (74.49?±?109.03?mL versus 95.48?±?133.67?mL, P?=?0.18), resected lymph nodes (17.28?±?9.46 versus 18.31?±?10.17, P?=?0.62), conversion rate (6.18% versus 4.34%, P?=?0.14), drainage duration (3.90?±?2.94?days versus 4.44?±?3.12?days, p?=?0.09), length of postoperative stay (6.16?±?4.40?days versus 6.45?±?4.80?days, P?=?0.22), and pain in POD1 (3.94?±?1.68 versus 3.59?±?2.76, p?=?0.07). Subgroup analysis showed the value of PSM and RCT group consistency with overall value. CONCLUSION:This up-to-date meta-analysis shows that the perioperative outcomes of U-VATS and M-VATS anatomical pulmonary resection are equivalent. In addition, the differences in long-term outcomes of these two approaches are still unclear. Thoracic surgeons should pay more emphasize on providing high-quality and personalized surgical care for patients, to improve the survival ultimately.
