Esophagectomy is a complex operation and associated with significant morbidity mortality. In an attempt to lower morbidity, we have adopted minimally invasive approach esophagectomy.Our primary objective was evaluate the outcomes of esophagectomy (MIE) in large group patients. Our secondary compare modified McKeown (videothoracoscopic surgery, laparoscopy, neck anastomosis [MIE-neck]) our current approach, Ivor Lewis (laparoscopy, videothoracoscopic chest [MIE-chest]).We reviewed 1033...
Purpose Although anatomic segmentectomy has been considered a compromised procedure by many surgeons, recent retrospective, single-institution series have demonstrated tumor recurrence and patient survival rates that approximate those achieved lobectomy. The primary objective of this study was to use propensity score matching compare outcomes after these resection approaches for stage I non–small-cell lung cancer. Patients Methods A retrospective data set including 392 patients 800 lobectomy...
Reconstitution of lethally irradiated mice with a mixture syngeneic and allogeneic (A+B-->A) bone marrow results in multilineage mixed chimerism, donor-specific transplantation tolerance, superior immunocompetence resistance to graft-vs-host disease. However, the morbidity mortality associated lethal irradiation would be major limitation clinical application chimerism induce tolerance for solid organ grafts or treat other nonmalignant hematologic diseases. We report here that durable skin...
As computed tomography (CT) screening for lung cancer becomes more widespread, volumetric analyses, including doubling times, of CT-screen detected nodules and cancers may provide useful information in the follow-up management CT-detected cancers.To analyze times CT screen compare prevalent nonprevalent different cell types on non small cancer.We performed time analysis 63 non–small as part Pittsburgh Lung Screening Study using a commercially available VITREA 2 workstation VITAL nodule...
