Image-guided video-assisted thoracoscopic resection (iVATS): Translation to clinical practice-real-world experience.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:We developed a novel approach for localization and resection of lung nodules, using image-guided video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (iVATS). We report our experience of translating iVATS into clinical care. METHODS:Methodology and workflow for iVATS developed as part of the Phase I/II trial were used to train surgeons, radiologists, anesthesiologists, and radiology technologists. Radiation dose, time from induction to incision, placement of T-bar to incision and incision to closure, hospital stay, and complication rates were recorded. RESULTS:Fifty patients underwent iVATS for resection of 54 nodules in a clinical hybrid operating room (OR) by six surgeons. Fifty-two (97%) nodules were successfully resected. Forty-two (84%) patients underwent wedge resection, four (7%) lobectomies, and two (4%) segmentectomy all with lymph node dissection. Median time from induction to incision was 89?minutes (range: 13-256?minutes); T-bar placement was 14?minutes (10-29?minutes); and incision to closure, 107?minutes (41-302?minutes). Average and total procedure radiation dose were: median?=?6?mSieverts (range: 2.9-35?mSieverts). No deaths were reported and median length of stay was 3 days (range: 1-12 days). CONCLUSIONS:Translation of iVATS into clinical practice has been initiated using a safe step-wise process, combining intraoperative C-arm computed tomography scanning and thoracoscopic surgery in a hybrid OR.

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:BackgroundUniportal 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.MethodsWe 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.ResultA 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.ConclusionThis 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.

Project description:BackgroundEuroLung Risk scores were established to predict postoperative morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing anatomic lung resections. We aimed to perform an external validation of the EuroLung scores, which were calculated from data of the European Society of Thoracic Surgeons database, in our video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery cohort.MethodsAll available EuroLung scores were calculated for 718 patients scheduled for anatomic video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery resections between 2009 and 2019. Morbidity and mortality according to the definitions of the EuroLung scores were analyzed in a prospectively maintained database.ResultsOverall observed complication rate was 10.45%. Scores showed weak individual correlation (η = 0.155-0.174). The EuroLung1 app score showed the biggest area under the receiver operative characteristic (ROC) curve with 0.660. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that predicted postoperative forced expiratory volume in 1 s was associated with increased complications in both EuroLung1 and parsimonious EuroLung1 scores. Thirty-day mortality was 0.7% (predicted 1.10-1.40%) and was associated with predicted postoperative forced expiratory volume in 1 s for both EuroLung2 and parsimonious EuroLung2 scores. The EuroLung2 (2016) showed the biggest area under the ROC curve with 0.673. Only a very weak eta correlation between predicted and observed mortality was found for both aggregate EuroLung2, EuroLung2 (2016), EuroLung2 (2019), and parsimonious EuroLung2 (2016) (η = 0.025/0.015/0.011/0.009).ConclusionEuroLung scores help to estimate postoperative morbidity. However, even with the highest aggregate EuroLung scores possible only 50% suffer from postoperative morbidity. Although calibration of the scores was acceptable, discrimination between predicted and observed events was poor. Therefore, individual correlation between predicted and observed events is weak. Therefore, EuroLung scores may be best used to compare institutional quality of care to the European Society of Thoracic Surgeons database but should not be used to preclude patients from surgical treatment.
