    Adoption of pleurectomy and decortication for malignant mesothelioma leads to similar survival as extrapleural pneumonectomy
    (MOSBY-ELSEVIER, 2016-02) YILDIZELİ, BEDRETTİN; Batirel, Hasan Fevzi; Metintas, Muzaffer; Caglar, Hale Basak; Ak, Guntulu; Yumuk, Perran Fulden; Yildizeli, Bedrettin; Yuksel, Mustafa
    Objective: We changed our surgical approach to malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) in August 2011 and adopted pleurectomy and decortication (PD) instead of extrapleural pneumonectomy (EPP). In this study, we analyzed our perioperative and survival results during the 2 periods. Methods: All patients who underwent surgical intervention for MPM during 2003-2014 were included. Data were retrospectively analyzed from a prospective database. Before August 2011, patients underwent evaluation for EPP and adjuvant chemoradiation (group 1). After August 2011, patients were evaluated for PD and adjuvant chemotherapy and/or radiation (group 2). Demographic characteristics, surgical technique, histology, side, completeness of resection, and types of treatments were recorded. Statistics was performed using Student t test, chi(2) tests, uni- and multivariate regression, and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Results: The same surgical team operated on 130 patients. Median age was 55.7 years (range, 26-80 years) and 76 were men. EPP and extended PD was performed in 72 patients. Ninety-day mortality was 10%. Median survival was 17.8 months with a 5-year survival rate of 14%. Uni- and multivariate analyses showed that epithelioid histology, stage N0, and trimodality treatment were associated with better survival (P=.039, P=.012, and P<.001, respectively). Demographic variables and overall survival (15.6 vs 19.6 months, respectively) were similar between the groups, whereas nonepithelioid histology, use of preoperative chemotherapy, and incomplete resections were more frequent in group 2 (P<.001, P<.001, and P=.006, respectively). Follow-up was shorter in group 2 (22.5 +/- 20.6 vs 16.4 +/- 10.9 months; P<.001). Conclusions: Adoption of PD as the main surgical approach is not associated with survival disadvantage in the surgical treatment of MPM.

    Preoperative Chemoradiation Therapy Decreases the Number of Lymph Nodes Resected During Esophagectomy
    (SPRINGER, 2015) ÇELİKEL, ÇİĞDEM; Issaka, Adamu; Ermerak, Nezih Onur; Bilgi, Zeynep; Kara, Volkan Hasan; Celikel, Cigdem Ataizi; Batirel, Hasan Fevzi
    Background This study aimed to analyze the effect of preoperative chemoradiation on the adequacy of lymph node dissection. Methods Patients with esophageal cancer treated with esophagectomy by the same surgeon between 2004 and 2011 were reviewed. Specimens were examined by the same pathologist. Patients were grouped into two depending on the type of treatment received. Results Forty-seven patients with curative esophagectomy were included in the study. Twenty patients had preoperative chemoradiation followed by surgery and 27 had surgery alone. Open and hybrid esophagectomy approaches were used. The average number of lymph nodes dissected was 16 +/- 10 (1-39). There was a significant decrease in the number of lymph nodes examined in patients with preoperative chemoradiotherapy in comparison to surgery alone (p = 0.001). Median length of stay was 12 days. R0 resection rate was 96 %. The median survival was 36.3 months, with a 42 % 5-year survival. Seven patients (25 %) had complete pathologic response following chemoradiation. No significant difference was recorded in terms of disease recurrence (p = 0.3). While morbidity was higher in the preoperative therapy group with 30 day mortality of 10 %, type of surgical approach does not seem to influence the number of lymph nodes dissected (p = 0.7). Conclusions Preoperative chemoradiation decreases the number of harvested lymph nodes following esophagectomy regardless of the surgical technique used. The optimum number of lymph nodes currently recommended to be dissected for accurate nodal staging and survival needs revision in this group of patients.

    What is the optimal postoperative oral feeding timing protocol for thoracotomy patients? Prospective randomized clinical trial on postoperative complications
    (BAYCINAR MEDICAL PUBL-BAYCINAR TIBBI YAYINCILIK, 2017) YILDIZELİ, BEDRETTİN; Evman, Serdar; Akoglu, Haldun; Yildizeli, Bedrettin; Batirel, Hasan Fevzi; Yuksel, Mustafa
    Background: This study aims to determine the optimal postoperative oral feeding initiating time with the lowest postoperative pulmonary complication rate in thoracotomy patients and compare cardiac and psychiatric complication rates caused by different feeding schemes. Methods: The study included 107 consecutive patients (84 males, 23 females; mean age 53.9 years; range 17 to 81 years) planned to undergo lung resection via elective thoracotomy for both benign and malignant pathologies in a single institution during a time period of two years. Patients were prospectively randomized into three groups according to postoperative oral intake initiation time: oral intake was initiated on the postoperative sixth hour in group 1, 24th hour in group 2, and when bowel functions resumed in group 3. Groups were then compared in terms of postoperative complication rates. Results: Groups were homogenous according to demographic properties. Twenty patients (18.7%) developed postoperative pulmonary complications: four (11.1%) in group 1, eight (22.2%) in each of groups 2 and 3. Median oral intake initiation time for group 3 was 47 hours (range 27 to 82 hours). There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of postoperative pulmonary and cardiac complications (p=0.358 and p=0.175, respectively). While postoperative incidence of delirium was significantly increased in group 3 (n=5, 14.3%, p=0.032), it was not observed in group 1 and it was observed in two patients (5.6%) in group 2. This complication was directly correlated with development of postoperative pulmonary complications (odds ratio=14.2; p=0.002). Conclusion: Early (sixth hour) initiation of postoperative oral feeding is not related with increased pulmonary complications. On the contrary, early initiation may enable rapid recovery of postoperative mental and physical conditions, prevent psychiatric disorders, and reduce pulmonary complication rates. Thus this scheme can be administrated safely in all thoracotomy patients without potential risk for preoperative aspiration.

    Metastasectomy for colorectal pulmonary metastases: A survey among members of the european society of thoracic surgeons
    (2023-02-01) BATIREL, HASAN FEVZİ; van Dorp M., Gonzalez M., Daddi N., BATIREL H. F., Brunelli A., Schreurs W. H.
    OBJECTIVES: Surgical management of pulmonary metastases in colorectal cancer patients is a debated topic. There is currently no consensus on this matter, which sparks considerable risk for international practice variation. The European Society of Thoracic Surgeons (ESTS) ran a survey to assess current clinical practices and to determine criteria for resection among ESTS members.METHODS: All ESTS members were invited to complete an online questionnaire of 38 questions on current practice and management of pulmonary metastases in colorectal cancer patients.RESULTS: In total, 308 complete responses were received (response rate: 22%) from 62 countries. Most respondents consider that pulmonary metastasectomy for colorectal pulmonary metastases improves disease control (97%) and improves patients\" survival (92%). Invasive mediastinal staging in case of suspicious hilar or mediastinal lymph nodes is indicated (82%). Wedge resection is the preferred type of resection for a peripheral metastasis (87%). Minimally invasive approach is the preferred approach (72%). For a centrally located colorectal pulmonary metastasis, the preferred form of treatment is a minimally invasive anatomical resection (56%). During metastasectomy, 67% of respondents perform mediastinal lymph node sampling or dissection. Routine chemotherapy is rarely or never given following metastasectomy (57% of respondents).CONCLUSIONS: This survey among the ESTS members underlines the change in practice of pulmonary metastasectomy with an increasing tendency in favour of minimally invasive metastasectomy and surgical resection is preferred over other types of local treatment. Criteria for resectability vary and controversy remains regarding lymph node assessment and the role of adjuvant treatment.
