ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a group of diffuse lung diseases that mainly involve the interstitial and alveolar cavities and result in loss of alveolar-capillary functional units, leading to restrictive ventilatory dysfunction and diffusion impairment. There was an increased incidence of lung cancer on the basis of ILD, and perioperative risk of patients with lung cancer combined with ILD (LC-ILD) was significantly increased. The aim of this study is to summarize the safety and experience of surgical treatment of LC-ILD. METHODS:A retrospective analysis was performed on 23 patients with LC-ILD who underwent pneumonectomy in Beijing Hospital from January 2012 to December 2019, and their clinical manifestations, image feature, pathology, surgical safety, perioperative complications and treatment experience were summarized. RESULTS:A total of 23 patients were included in this study, including 20 males (87.0%) with an average age of (69.1±7.8) years, and 19 cases (82.6%) were smokers. Of the ILD types, 14 cases (60.9%) were idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, 7 cases (30.4%) were idiopathic nonspecific interstitial pneumonia, and 2 (8.7%) were interstitial lung disease associated with connective tissue diseases. The pathology of lung cancer included adenocarcinoma (30.4%, 7/23), small cell carcinoma (30.4%, 7/23), squamous cell carcinoma (26.1%, 6/23), small cell carcinoma mixed with squamous cell carcinoma (4.3%, 1/23) and large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (8.7%, 2/23). Surgical approaches included video assisted thoracoscopy (69.6%, 16/23) and anterolateral thoracotomy (30.4%, 7/23), with lobectomy (52.2%, 12/23), double lobectomy (4.3%, 1/23), and sublobectomy (39.1%, 9/23). There were 11 cases (47.8%) of postoperative complications, including 8 cases (34.8%) of pulmonary complications, 4 cases (17.4%) of acute exacerbation of ILD (AE-ILD), 6 cases (26.1%) of atrial fibrillation, and 1 case (4.3%) of acute left ventricular dysfunction. The 90-day mortality is 8.7% (2/23) and the cause of death was acute exacerbation of ILD. CONCLUSIONS:Most of LC-ILD were elderly patients with multiple comorbidities and decreased pulmonary function, leading to significantly increased surgical risk. The ILD should be fully evaluated and controlled before surgery, intraoperative trauma should be minimized, and special attention should be paid to pulmonary complications and AE-ILD after surgery. Postoperative AE-ILD has a poor prognosis and glucocorticoids may be effective. Early diagnosis and treatment is the key to treatment of AE-ILD.

Project description:BackgroundThe diagnostic accuracy and safety of transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC) via a flexible bronchoscope under sedation compared with that of surgical lung biopsy (SLB) in the same patients is unknown.MethodsRetrospectively the data of fifty-two patients with interstitial lung diseases (median age: 63.5 years; 21 auto-antibody positive) who underwent TBLC followed by SLB (median time from TBLC to SLB: 57 days) was collected. The samples from TBLC and SLB were randomly labelled to mask the relationship between the two samples. Diagnosis was made independently by pathologists, radiologists, and pulmonary physicians in a stepwise manner, and a final diagnosis was made at multidisciplinary discussion (MDD). In each diagnostic step the specific diagnosis, the diagnostic confidence level, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) diagnostic guideline criteria, and treatment strategy were recorded.ResultsWithout clinical and radiological information, the agreement between the histological diagnoses by TBLC and SLB was 42.3% (kappa [κ] = 0.23, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.08-0.39). However, the agreement between the TBLC-MDD and SLB-MDD diagnoses and IPF/non-IPF diagnosis using the two biopsy methods was 65.4% (κ = 0.57, 95% CI: 0.42-0.73) and 90.4% (47/52), respectively. Out of 38 (73.1%) cases diagnosed with high or definite confidence at TBLC-MDD, 29 had concordant SLB-MDD diagnoses (agreement: 76.3%, κ = 0.71, 95% CI: 0.55-0.87), and the agreement for IPF/non-IPF diagnoses was 97.4% (37/38). By adding the pathological diagnosis, the inter-observer agreement of clinical diagnosis improved from κ = 0.22 to κ = 0.42 for TBLC and from κ = 0.27 to κ = 0.38 for SLB, and the prevalence of high or definite diagnostic confidence improved from 23.0% to 73.0% and from 17.3% to 73.0%, respectively. Of all 383 TBLC performed during the same period, pneumothorax occurred in 5.0% of cases, and no severe bleeding, acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease, or fatal event was observed.ConclusionsTBLC via a flexible bronchoscope under deep sedation is safely performed, and the TBLC-MDD diagnosis with a high or definite confidence level is concordant with the SLB-MDD diagnosis in the same patients.

Project description:BackgroundDrug-induced interstitial lung disease (DIILD) is a form of interstitial lung disease resulting from exposure to drugs causing inflammation and possibly interstitial fibrosis. Antineoplastic drugs are the primary cause of DIILD, accounting for 23%-51% of cases, with bleomycin, everolimus, erlotinib, trastuzumab-deruxtecan and immune checkpoint inhibitors being the most common causative agents. DIILD can be difficult to identify and manage, and there are currently no specific guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of DIILD caused by anticancer drugs.ObjectiveTo develop recommendations for the diagnosis and management of DIILD in cancer patients.MethodsBased on the published literature and their clinical expertise, a multidisciplinary group of experts in Italy developed recommendations stratified by DIILD severity, based on the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events.ResultsThe recommendations highlight the importance of multidisciplinary interaction in the diagnosis and management of DIILD. Important components of the diagnostic process are physical examination and careful patient history-taking, measurement of vital signs (particularly respiratory rate and arterial oxygen saturation), relevant laboratory tests, respiratory function testing with spirometry and diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide and computed tomography/imaging. Because the clinical and radiological signs of DIILD are often similar to those of pneumonias or interstitial lung diseases, differential diagnosis is important, including microbial and serological testing to exclude or confirm infectious causes. In most cases, management of DIILD requires the discontinuation of the antineoplastic agent and the administration of short-term steroids. Steroid tapering must be undertaken slowly to prevent reactivation of DIILD. Patients with severe and very severe (grade 3 and 4) DIILD will require hospitalisation and often need oxygen and non-invasive ventilation. Decisions about invasive ventilation should take into account the patient's cancer prognosis.ConclusionsThese recommendations provide a structured step-by-step diagnostic and therapeutic approach for each grade of suspected cancer-related DIILD.
