Subxiphoid uniportal thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy for stage I non-small cell lung cancer: Feasibility, quality of life and financial worthiness.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Subxiphoid uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (SVATS) is more technically challenging than intercostal uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (UVATS), especially in more complex procedures such as segmentectomy. We therefore aimed to investigate the worthiness of undertaking the more demanding subxiphoid approach in patients who had undergone anatomical segmentectomy for stage IA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS:A total of 491 patients were included in our study who had undergone anatomical segmentectomy for stage IA non-small cell lung cancer from September 2014 to April 2018. They were divided into two groups; 278 patients in the UVATS group and 213 patients in the SVATS group. Different perioperative variables, postoperative pain, quality of life and cost were analyzed and compared between both groups. RESULTS:The SVATS group showed a significantly longer operative time (P =?0.007) and more operative blood loss than the intercostal group (P =?0.004). There was no significant difference between both groups regarding postoperative drainage, duration of chest tube, postoperative hospital stay, operative conversion or postoperative complications. The SVATS group showed a significantly lower pain score postoperatively (P

Project description:BackgroundIn recent years, opportunities to conduct anatomical segmentectomies for early stage lung cancer, metastatic lung tumor, and so on have been increasing. Generally, uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (U-VATS) uncommon segmentectomy is technically more complicated because of limited angulation compared to multiportal VATS (M-VATS) and the need to treat peripheral vessels/bronchi compared to common segmentectomy. This study aimed to determine the safety and feasibility of U-VATS uncommon segmentectomy compared with U-VATS common segmentectomy and M-VATS uncommon segmentectomy.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 76 patients in the M-VATS group and 45 patients in the U-VATS group who underwent VATS segmentectomy from January 2015 to December 2020. During that period, the perioperative results of U-VATS uncommon (n=22) segmentectomy were compared with those of U-VATS common (n=23) and M-VATS uncommon (n=37) segmentectomy. Uncommon segmentectomy was defined as any segmentectomy other than segmentectomies of the lingual, basilar, or superior segment of the lower lobe (S6), and upper division of the left upper lobe. All patients in our department underwent preoperative three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) angiography and bronchography to image bronchovascular structures and determine the resection line.ResultsPatients characteristics were similar between the U-VATS uncommon segmentectomy group and the U-VATS common segmentectomy group or the M-VATS uncommon segmentectomy group. In U-VATS, there were no significant differences between common and uncommon segmentectomy in operation time, postoperative drainage, postoperative hospitalization, and postoperative complications. Comparing M-VATS and U-VATS uncommon segmentectomies, operation time (145±35 vs. 185±44 min, P<0.001) and postoperative hospitalization (3.1±1.6 vs. 4.2±1.8 days, P=0.02) were significantly shorter in the U-VATS group than in the M-VATS group. There were no significant differences in blood loss, intraoperative bleeding, duration of postoperative drainage and postoperative complications.ConclusionsIn U-VATS, both types of segmentectomies can be achieved with similar results. Moreover, U-VATS shortened operation time and postoperative hospitalization in uncommon segmentectomy compared with conventional M-VATS. U-VATS is a useful approach for uncommon segmentectomy.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) segmentectomy has become widespread, the advantage of uniportal VATS (U-VATS) segmentectomy over multiportal VATS (M-VATS) remains controversial. The purpose of this study was to verify the safety and usefulness of U-VATS segmentectomy compared with conventional hybrid/multiportal segmentectomy.MethodsHere, we retrospectively reviewed the data from anatomical pulmonary segmentectomy cases in a single institution from March 2010 to March 2021. Patients were divided into the U-VATS and hybrid/multiportal VATS (H/M-VATS) groups. Perioperative results were compared between the groups after matching for patient background characteristics. In addition, cases of complex segmentectomy were selected from each group and compared in terms of perioperative results.ResultsA total of 180 patients underwent pulmonary segmentectomy during the study period at this institution, comprising 57 cases in the U-VATS group and 123 cases in the H/M-VATS group. After matching for age, sex, disease, tumor location, and type of segmentectomy, no significant differences between the groups were seen in blood loss, major intraoperative bleeding, rate of conversion to thoracotomy, postoperative complications, or re-hospitalization within 30 days after discharge. Operation time (141±46 vs. 174±45 min, P<0.001), postoperative drainage duration (1.5±1.2 vs. 2.3±1.8 days, P=0.007), and postoperative hospital stay (3.4±2.0 vs. 4.6±2.5 days, P=0.006) were significantly lower in the U-VATS group. Subgroup analysis of the complex segmentectomy cases also revealed that operation time (146±34 vs. 185±47 min, P<0.001), postoperative drainage duration (1.5±1.3 vs. 2.2±1.2 days, P=0.021), and postoperative hospital stay (3.0±1.4 vs. 4.9±2.1 days, P<0.001) were significantly reduced in the U-VATS group.ConclusionsU-VATS segmentectomy appears as safe and feasible as H/M-VATS segmentectomy. An experienced surgeon can make a smooth transition to U-VATS.
