Pneumonectomy for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer: Predictors of Operative Mortality and Survival

Chinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2020
Surgery is the most effective way to cure non-small cell lung cancer currently. Although sleeve lobectomy, with less reduction of respiratory function and a lower mortality rate, would not compromise oncological results in well-selected patients with ...

Usefulness of Thoracoscopic Debridement for Chronic Empyema after an Extrapleural Pneumonectomy [PDF]

, 2016
We present the case of a 65-year-old Japanese man diagnosed with chronic empyema (without a bronchopleural fistula) that occurred 7 months after he underwent an extrapleural pneumonectomy for right malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). Following thoracic

Detection of Murine Post-Pneumonectomy Lung Regeneration by 18FDG PET Imaging [PDF]

, 2012
Background: An intriguing biologic process in most adult mammals is post-pneumonectomy lung regeneration, that is, the removal of one lung (pneumonectomy) results in the rapid compensatory growth of the remaining lung.

Evidence for pleural epithelial-mesenchymal transition in murine compensatory lung growth.

PLoS ONE, 2017
In many mammals, including rodents and humans, removal of one lung results in the compensatory growth of the remaining lung; however, the mechanism of compensatory lung growth is unknown.

Nuclear factor-kappa B influences early phase of compensatory lung growth after pneumonectomy in mice

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2017
Background Compensatory lung growth (CLG) is a well-established lung regeneration model. However, the sequential mechanisms, including unknown molecular triggers or regulators, remain unclear.

Anemia, Abnormal Body Mass Index, and Sarcopenia Increase Complication Risk in Patients Undergoing Surgical Treatment for Metastatic Bone Disease

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Metastatic bone disease (MBD) is a common complication of primary cancers and is typically managed surgically. Overall health status and nutritional optimization are essential in surgical outcomes. The objective of this study was to report the intersectionality of previously studied laboratory, imaging, and clinical ...

Single-Cell Transcriptional Profiling of Cells Derived From Regenerating Alveolar Ducts

Frontiers in Medicine, 2020
Lung regeneration occurs in a variety of adult mammals after surgical removal of one lung (pneumonectomy). Previous studies of murine post-pneumonectomy lung growth have identified regenerative “hotspots” in subpleural alveolar ducts; however, the cell ...

The Cellular and Physiological Basis for Lung Repair and Regeneration: Past, Present, and Future. [PDF]

, 2020
The respiratory system, which includes the trachea, airways, and distal alveoli, is a complex multi-cellular organ that intimately links with the cardiovascular system to accomplish gas exchange.

History of the Innovation of Damage Control for Management of Trauma Patients: 1902-2016 [PDF]

, 2017
Objective: To review the history of the innovation of damage control (DC) for management of trauma patients. Background: DC is an important development in trauma care that provides a valuable case study in surgical innovation.

Perioperative Mechanical Circulatory Support for Cardiac Assistance in Thoracic Surgery: A Scoping Review

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
High‐risk cardiac patients may benefit from timely temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) implantation to provide perioperative hemodynamic stabilization and circulatory support, thus enabling them to undergo life‐saving thoracic surgery. CPB: cardiopulmonary bypass; IABP: intra‐aortic balloon pump; tMCS: temporary mechanical circulatory ...
