One‐lung ventilation in obese patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy for lung cancer
What is the best strategy to obtain one‐lung ventilation (OLV) in obese patients scheduled for thoracoscopic lung resections? Double lumen tubes (DLTs), (i.e., Carlens tube, Robertshaw tube etc…) or single‐lumen tube (SLT) with bronchial blockers (i.e., Univent, EZ blockers etc…)?Obese group compared to the control group was associated with: (i) higher

CT Scans Understage Lymph Nodes in Gastric and Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives The presence of lymph node metastases in patients with gastric and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma provides prognostic information and guides treatment decisions. We sought to determine the sensitivity of computed tomography (CT) imaging for clinical nodal staging in patients with resectable gastric and

Complete hilar lymph node dissection or qualitative diagnosis be performed with curative segmentectomy. In particular, part of the NSCLC in segment 6 patients may be a candidate for lobectomy because of the difficulty of complete dissection of station 11 lymph node. Abstract Background Segmentectomy with curative intention is occasionally performed for

On tumor development: fractional transport approach [PDF]
A growth of malignant neoplasm is considered as a fractional transport approach. We suggested that the main process of the tumor development through a lymphatic net is fractional transport of cells. In the framework of this fractional kinetics we were able to show that the mean size of main growth is due to subdiffusion, while the appearance of ...

Robot‐Assisted Versus Open Surgery for the Resection of Large Thymomas: A Retrospective Cohort Study
ABSTRACT Background Robot‐assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) is increasingly becoming the preferred surgical method for the resection of thymomas. We initiated the current study to evaluate perioperative outcomes and early recurrence associated with the surgical approach.

Primary sebaceous carcinoma of the lung is very rare, and no effective treatment has been yet established. We successfully treated lung sebaceous carcinoma with sequential treatment with radiotherapy and anti‐PD‐1 antibody therapy. The tumor had AKT1 mutation and was positive for PD‐L1 expression, suggesting AKT‐PD‐L1 pathway may be implicated in the ...

2D View Aggregation for Lymph Node Detection Using a Shallow Hierarchy of Linear Classifiers [PDF]
Enlarged lymph nodes (LNs) can provide important information for cancer diagnosis, staging, and measuring treatment reactions, making automated detection a highly sought goal. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm representation of decomposing the LN detection problem into a set of 2D object detection subtasks on sampled CT slices, largely ...

Cystic Neck Mass in an Adult: Unusual Manifestation of a Mediastinal Mature Teratoma
Anterior mediastinal teratomas are congenital tumors containing derivatives of all three germ layers. They usually grow slowly and are often detected incidentally by imaging studies. We describe the case of a 38-year-old man with an anterior mediastinal
