Article Synopsis
- * It compares outcomes between two recovery techniques: TA-NRP (which includes simultaneous heart recovery) and abdominal NRP (A-NRP) without heart recovery, focusing on the incidence of severe primary graft dysfunction (PGD) and other post-transplant metrics.
- * Results showed no significant difference in severe PGD rates at 72 hours between techniques, but TA-NRP patients had a significantly lower overall incidence of PGD and equivalent post-transplant outcomes compared to A-NRP.
Background: Gastrointestinal complications after lung transplatation are associated with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality. This study aims to describe severe gastrointestinal complications (SGC) after lung transplantation.
Methods: We performed a prospective, observational study that included 136 lung transplant patients during a seven year period in a tertiary care universitary hospital.
The Thoracic Surgery and Thoracic Oncology groups of the Spanish Society of Pulmonology and Thoracic Surgery (SEPAR) have backed the publication of a handbook on recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. Due to the high incidence and mortality of this disease, the best scientific evidence must be constantly updated and made available for consultation by healthcare professionals. To draw up these recommendations, we called on a wide-ranging group of experts from the different specialties, who have prepared a comprehensive review, divided into 4 main sections.

Methods: Descriptive, prospective and analytical study of a patient cohort with chest trauma who underwent follow-up for a period of 30 days. Excluded from the study were those patients with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury, long-bone fractures, abdominal trauma and patients requiring mechanical ventilation.
Objective: To describe the characteristics and the result of surgical treatment in a series of patients with primary pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma (PSC).
Methodology: A descriptive study of 11 patients with primary PSC who were treated by the Thoracic Surgery Department at the Hospital Universitario 12 de Octubre in Madrid (Spain) between 2005 and 2009. We analyzed age, gender, histologic type, pathological stage, type of surgery and survival (in months).
