Article Synopsis
- The bronchopleural fistula (BPF) is a serious complication that can occur after pneumonectomy, often addressed through various surgical buttressing techniques to improve healing.
- A review of literature on this topic included 27 articles, but only 16 were suitable for analysis due to factors like small sample sizes and irrelevant surgical procedures.
- The results indicated that three studies found significant benefits of using bronchial stump buttressing to reduce BPF risk, while the rest provided descriptive statistics or assessed blood perfusion in the tissue used.
: Division of the pulmonary ligament is standard in lower lobectomies, but its application in upper lobectomies remains controversial due to potential complications like atelectasis and bronchial kinking. This retrospective matched cohort study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ligament resection in upper lobectomies for oncological purposes. : From January 2015 to December 2020, 988 patients who underwent minimally invasive upper lobectomies across multiple centers were identified.

This study leverages cutting-edge gene-expression-profiling technologies to perform an in-depth molecular characterization of NSCLC specimens, with the objective of uncovering tumor-specific genomic alterations. By employing DNA microarray analysis, our research aims to refine the classification of NSCLC for early detection, guide molecular-targeted treatment approaches, enhance prognostication, and broaden the scientific understanding of the disease's biology.
