    Abstract Objectives: to date, no consensus has been reached on the surgical gold-standard in pleural mesothelioma (PM). We retrospectively reviewed our experience as a tertiary referral centre, to compare short- and long-term survival of PM patients undergoing different types of surgery.
    Methods: in retrospective, observational, single-centre study, we analysed all the patients histologically diagnosed with PM undergoing surgical procedures with palliative or curative intent at IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori of Milan, Italy, from January 2003 to December 2020. The primary study endpoint was 10-year overall survival (OS) in three different types of resections: extra-pleural-pneumonectomy (EPP), pleurectomy/decortication (P/D), partial-pleurectomy/pleural-biopsy (PP/B). Secondary endpoints were postoperative hospital stay and postoperative 30-day and 90-day mortality rates. The survival function was estimated using Kaplan-Meier, and the Log-rank test was used for testing differences. Univariable and Multivariable Cox regression models were implemented to estimate Hazard Ratio (HR) for all variables of interest.
    Results: 243 consecutive patients were enrolled, EPP was performed in 49 (20.2%), P/D in 58 (23.8%), PP/B in 136 (56.0%) patients. The median follow-up time was 19.8 months. 10-year OS was significantly better for P/D group (16%, Log-Rank test p<0.0001) compared to PP/B (1.8%) and EPP (0%). No statistically significant differences were found among the 3 surgical groups in 30- and 90-day mortality rates. At multivariable analysis, gender (male, HR=1.58), type of resection (P/D, HR=0.55) and surgery date (recent years, HR=0.61) were found to be independent prognostic factors for OS.
    Conclusions: in PM, lung-sparing curative approach (e.g. P/D) should be preferred in highly selected patients and in highly experienced centres, whenever appropriate. Anyway, when P/D is not indicated, adopting palliative/conservative management (e.g. PP/B) could ensure comparable results as extremely aggressive surgeries (e.g. EPP). The aim of surgery in PM should not be reaching complete resection, but rather accomplishing significant resection allowing to complete the multimodality treatment in highly selected patients in experienced centers.

    Abstract There is growing evidence that inflammatory, immunologic, and metabolic status is associated with cancer patients survival. Here, we built a simple algorithm to predict lung cancer outcome. Perioperative routine blood tests (RBT) of a cohort of patients with resectable primary lung cancer (LC) were analysed. Inflammatory, immunologic, and metabolic profiles were used to create a single algorithm (RBT index) predicting LC survival. A concurrent cohort of patients with resectable lung metastases (LM) was used to validate the RBT index. Charts of 2088 consecutive LC and 1129 LM patients undergoing lung resection were evaluated. Among RBT parameters, C-reactive protein (CRP), lymphocytes, neutrophils, hemoglobin, albumin and glycemia independently correlated with survival, and were used to build the RBT index. Patients with a high RBT index had a higher 5-year mortality than low RBT patients (adjusted HR 1.93, 95% CI 1.62-2.31). High RBT patients also showed a fourfold higher risk of 30-day postoperative mortality (2.3% vs. 0.5%, p 0.0019). The LM analysis validated the results of the LC cohort. We developed a simple and easily available multifunctional tool predicting short-term and long-term survival of curatively resected LC and LM. Prospective external validation of RBT index is warranted.

    Abstract Background: Three-dimensional (3D) vision systems are available for video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS). It is unclear whether 3D-VATS is superior to bidimensional (2D) VATS systems.
    Methods: We analyzed patients who received 3D-VATS (
    Results: Operative time, length of hospital stay, number of dissected lymph nodes, and rate of postoperative complications were similar in both groups. In the 3D group, there was no conversion to thoracotomy for intraoperative major vascular injuries, while conversion to an open procedure for uncontrolled bleeding was recorded in 4 (1.7%) patients in the 2D group. Reoperation for hemostasis and/or aerostasis occurred in 6 (2.6%) patients of the 2D group (
    Conclusion: Nonrandomized comparison of different surgical approaches is challenging. In our experience, 3D-VATS was safe and effective and offered excellent operative perception and sensitivity, enabling safer dissection of hilar structures. The 3D-VATS system helped skilled surgeons beyond the boundaries of more oncologically aggressive surgery.

    Abstract The extra-pleural pneumonectomy (EPP) is a standardised surgical procedure born for pleural tuberculosis and later used in pleural cancer treatment, especially in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). This systematic review aimed to focus on the actual overall EPP role in surgical oncology. The literature search was performed from January 1985 to January 2018 In PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane according to PRISMA protocol. The search was restricted to publications in English with the research words "extrapleural pneumonectomy", "malignant pleural mesothelioma", "pleural malignancies". The results were then filtered focusing only on papers with series of patients treated with EPP, for mesothelioma and non-mesothelioma malignancies. The search was restricted to publications in English. We found a 5-year overall survival (OS) ranging from 0 to 78%. The peri-operative mortality and morbidity ranged from 0 to 11.8% and 0 to 82.6%, respectively. The most represented and described post-operative complications reported were ARDS, pericardial tamponade, cardiac herniation, pulmonary embolism, respiratory infections, respiratory failure, atrial arrhythmia, myocardial infarction. In referral centres and selected patients, EPP is a cytoreductive or radical surgical treatment in extended pleural malignancies. Prospective studies are needed to standardise the timing of the procedure in a multimodality treatment program, according to the oncological and functional indications, to keep an acceptable complications rate and post-operative quality of life status.

    Abstract A 71-year-old male former smoker was referred for worsening hemoptysis from a hilar left tumor without radiologic or bronchoscopic identification of the bleeding source. He underwent an urgent upper lobectomy extended to the pericardium and left phrenic nerve to control active bleeding. Histologic analysis revealed a malignant triton tumor, a rare aggressive subtype of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors. This is a case report of unusual pulmonary involvement associated with hemoptysis. Despite radical surgery and multimodal treatment with adjuvant chemotherapy the patient died of systemic dissemination 10 months after surgery, with a disease-free survival of 3 months.
