J Cardiothorac Surg
January 2025
Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Seoul National University Hospital, 101 Daehak-Ro, Jongno-Gu, Seoul, 03080, Republic of Korea.
Objectives: Recently, sarcopenia has been linked to unfavorable outcomes in various surgical procedures, including lung cancer surgery. This study aimed to investigate the impact of respiratory sarcopenia (RS) on postoperative and long-term outcomes in elderly patients undergoing lung cancer surgery.
Methods: This retrospective study included patients aged 70 years and older who underwent lobectomy with curative intent for lung cancer between 2017 and 2019.

Department of Thoracic and Vascular Surgery, and Lung Transplantation, Marie-Lannelongue Hospital, Le Plessis-Robinson, France.
Background: Post-pneumonectomy bronchopleural fistula (BPF) is a life-threatening event whose treatment is not standardized.
Case Presentation: We report the management of a 28-year-old patient with a 3-year history of BPF complicating right pneumonectomy for congenital emphysema. Despite closure by an Amplatzer device, the patient had chronic pyothorax and severely deteriorated general health and quality of life.
Outcomes of segmentectomy versus lobectomy in adults with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis.

. Departamento de Cirurgia Torácica, Instituto do Coracao, Hospital das Clínicas HCFMUSP, Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade de São Paulo, São Paulo, SP, BR.
Objective: Surgical resection remains the gold standard treatment for bronchiectasis in patients who present with hemoptysis or suppuration, as well as in those who do not respond to clinical treatment. We sought to investigate the efficacy of sublobar resection (segmentectomy) and compare it with that of lobar resection (lobectomy) in patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis.
Methods: Patients undergoing lobectomy or segmentectomy between 2019 and 2023 were included in the study.
Financial burden of complications following lung resection: a scoping review protocol.

Introduction: Global healthcare expenditures are rising, driven largely by increased spending in both high- and low-income countries with hospitalisation as a primary contributor. Respiratory diseases, particularly lung cancer, pose significant public health and economic challenges with thoracic surgery as the standard curative treatment. Complications post resection, such as arrhythmias, infections and respiratory failure, result in substantial healthcare costs and resource demands.

Thoracic Surgery Unit, Careggi University Hospital, Largo Brambilla, 1, 50134, Florence, Italy.
Background: Lung cancer is the first cause of cancer-related death. Awake lung resection is a new frontier of the concept of minimally invasive surgery. Our purpose is to demonstrate the feasibility of this technique for lobar and sublobar lung resection in NSCLC patients.
