Background: In malignant pleural mesothelioma), it is difficult to evaluate the degree of tumor progression using imaging findings. It is essential to develop an objective index that is independent of imaging findings and useful for assessing the degree of tumor progression and indications for surgery.
Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the data of 79 patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma who underwent extrapleural pneumonectomy or pleurectomy/decortication at our institution between 1999 and 2022.

Background: Regional analgesia techniques have become the basis of multimodal analgesia for acute and chronic pain. They are widely used in thoracic surgery, but the best treatment is still uncertain.
Objectives: We aimed to compare and rank the effectiveness of regional analgesia techniques for thoracic surgery.

Objectives: Pleural mesothelioma (PM) is an aggressive disease linked to asbestos exposure, presenting significant treatment challenges. The recommended approach is multimodal treatment, even if the concept of resectable PM and the superiority of one surgical technique over the other [(extended) pleurectomy decortication [(E)PD] vs extra-pleural pneumonectomy (EPP)] are matter of debates. The aim of this study is to compare the 2 techniques in terms of short- and long-term outcomes at a high-volume centre.

Background: Solitary fibrous tumors can manifest at various anatomical sites, predominantly occurring at extrapleural sites with a peak incidence between 40 and 70 years. SFT necessitates long-term follow-up owing to its tumor characteristics. However, comprehensive reports covering the period from initial diagnosis to the patient's demise are lacking.

Article Synopsis
- Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare and aggressive lung cancer that presents significant treatment challenges due to its severe health impacts and limited research on effective therapies.
- A case study shows a patient diagnosed with MPM who underwent successful treatment combining chemotherapy and immunotherapy, leading to significant tumor reduction and successful surgery.
- The findings suggest that this treatment approach may enhance the chances of complete tumor removal and improve patient outcomes in MPM cases.
