Primary Chest Wall Ewing Sarcoma: Treatment and Long-Term Results.

Objective: The aim of the study is to evaluate early and long-term results of chest wall primary Ewing's sarcoma patients treated in the time period February 2000-February 2023 by a multidisciplinary approach.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent chest wall resection for a primary tumor. Treatment approach, extent of resection, 30-day mortality, overall survival (OS), local recurrence-free survival (LRFS), and metastasis-free survival (MFS) were analyzed.

Case report: Complex left-carina resection: three-year single-center experience.

Carinal and tracheobronchial angle tumors have long been a contraindication for surgical removal; the technique of tracheal sleeve pneumonectomy makes it possible to approach this malignancy but still represents a surgical challenge. Left sleeve pneumonectomy is less common compared with right sleeve pneumonectomy and represents a minority component in the literature's case series due to the complexity of the anatomy. In addition, there is no standard for treatment strategy, and it must be assessed on a case-by-case basis.

Induction Chemotherapy Followed by Pleurectomy Decortication and Hyperthermic Intraoperative Chemotherapy (HITHOC) for Early-Stage Epitheliod Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma-A Prospective Report.

Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive disease with poor prognosis and the current treatment for early-stage MPM is based on a multimodality therapy regimen involving platinum-based chemotherapy preceding or following surgery. To enhance the cytoreductive role of surgery, some peri- or intra-operative intracavitary treatments have been developed, such as hyperthermic chemotherapy, but long-term results are weak. The aim of this study was to report the post-operative results and mid-term outcomes of our multimodal intention-to-treat pathway, including induction chemotherapy, followed by surgery and Hyperthermic Intraoperative THOracic Chemotherapy (HITHOC) in the treatment of early-stage epithelioid MPM.
