@#Objective To study the correlation of preoperative hemoglobin amount with venous thromboembolism (VTE) after surgical treatment of bronchiectasis and the clinical significance. Methods A retrospective study was performed on patients with bronchiectasis who underwent surgical treatment in our center from June 2017 to November 2021. The differences in blood parameters between the VTE patients and non-VTE patients were compared. The relationship between preoperative hemoglobin and VTE was confirmed by quartile grouping and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results A total of 122 patients were enrolled, including 50 males and 72 females, with a mean age of 52.52±12.29 years. The overall incidence of VTE after bronchiectasis was 9.02% (11/122). Preoperative hemoglobin amount (OR=0.923, 95%CI 0.870-0.980, P=0.008) and D-dimer amount (OR=1.734, 95%CI 1.087-2.766, P=0.021) were independent influencing factors for VTE after bronchiectasis. The incidence of VTE after bronchiectasis decreased gradually with the increase of preoperative hemoglobin amount. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of postoperative D-dimer alone was 0.757, whereas the AUC of postoperative D-dimer combined with preoperative hemoglobin amount was 0.878. Conclusion Low preoperative hemoglobin is an independent risk factor for postoperative VTE. Postoperative D-dimer combined with preoperative hemoglobin amount has a better predictive performance compared with postoperative D-dimer alone for postoperative VTE.

@#Objective To investigate the surgical procedure selection, operation technique and safety of anatomic sublobar resection for pulmonary nodules. Methods The clinical data of 242 patients with clinical stage ⅠA lung cancer who underwent anatomic sublobar resection in our hospital between 2017 and 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 81 males and 161 females with a median age of 57.0 (50.0, 65.0) years. They were divided into 4 groups according to the surgical methods, including a segmentectomy group (n=148), a combined segmentectomy group (n=31), an enlarged segmentectomy group (n=43) and an anatomic wedge resection group (n=20). The preoperative CT data, operation related indexes and early postoperative outcomes of each group were summarized. Results The median medical history of the patients was 4.0 months. The median maximum diameter of nodule on CT image was 1.1 cm, and the consolidation/tumor ratio (CTR) was ≤0.25 in 81.0% of the patients. A total of 240 patients were primary lung adenocarcinoma. The median operation time was 130.0 min, the median blood loss was 50.0 mL, the median chest drainage time was 3.0 d, and the hospitalization cost was (53.0±12.0) thousand yuan. The operation time of combined segmentectomy was longer than that of the segmentectomy group (P=0.001). The operation time (P=0.000), intraoperative blood loss (P=0.000), lymph nodes dissected (P=0.007) and cost of hospitalization (P=0.000) in the anatomic wedge resection group were shorter or less than those in the other three groups. There was no significant difference in the drainage time, total drainage volume, air leakage or postoperative hospital stay among the four groups (P>0.05). Conclusion The combined application of segmentectomy and wedge resection technique provides a more flexible surgical option for the surgical treatment of early lung cancer with ground glass opacity as the main component.

Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of anatomic combined pulmonary segmental resection in patients with bronchiectasis.Methods:This study reviewed the data of patients who underwent thoracoscopic combined pulmonary segmentectomy for bronchiectasis in our hospital from January 2015 to June 2019.The surgical indications were a patient diagnosed with bronchiectasis by high-resolution CT(HRCT), radiographic presence of surgical target, clinical symptoms such as repeated infection, hemoptysis or persistent sputum, and poor relief of symptoms under medical treatment.A total of 113 patients with complete data were divided into two groups according to surgical methods: anatomical combined pulmonary segemectomy(anatomical group, 62 cases) and non-anatomical combined pulmonary segemectomy(non-anatomical group, 51 cases). Detection of two groups of patients with general information as well as the operation time, intraoperative blood loss and extubation time, postoperative complications(BPF, continuous leakage, hemoptysis and pulmonary infection, etc.), such as index to evaluate the safety, postoperative 1 year follow-up review, record the change of the two groups of postoperative lung function 1 year, pulmonary infection and the times of reentry haemoptysis symptom control, evaluation of operation effect.Results:The results showed that there were no statistical differences between the two groups in age, gender, lesion range, resection range and postoperative lung function(including FEV1% change in the predicted value and DLCO% change in the predicted value). However, the operative time in the two groups was(116.9±29.7)min in the dissection group, the non-anatomical group(107.3±28.6)min, comparison was made between the two groups( P=0.003). The number of days after thoracic drainage extraction in the anatomical group(5.6±3.8)days, non-anatomical group(6.9±5.0)days, there was a statistical difference between the two groups( P=0.03). In terms of postoperative complications, the number of patients admitted to hospital more than 2 times for postoperative hemoptysis, bronchopleural fistula and pulmonary infection within 1 year in the non-anatomical group was higher than that in the anatomical group, but there was no statistical difference. Conclusion:For patients with bronchiectasis requiring surgical treatment, thoracoscopic dissection combined with pulmonary segmental resection is safe and conducive to recovery, and has less complications, which is worthy of promotion.

The risk of perioperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) is pretty high in thoracic cancer patients. Perioperative VTE influences the recovery of patients after operation and quality of life in the future, even seriously leading to death. To strengthen the knowledge and attention of thoracic surgeons on perioperative VTE in thoracic cancer patients, China National Research Collaborative Group on VTE in Thoracic Surgery released the edition of VTE prophalaxis in thoracic cancer patients: Chinese experts consensus in 2018. This article is to interpret the diagnostic value and risk prediction value of D-dimer in VTE in detail, and briefly introduce the role of other biomarkers in VTE of tumor patients. The consensus interpretation aims to deepen the understanding of thoracic surgeons on the clinical significance of D-dimer in VTE.

Objective@#To investigate the current status of prevention and treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after thoracic surgery in China.@*Method@#Chinese thoracic surgeons were investigated by the online questionnaire which was based on the Chinese version of International VTE questionnaire added with 6 extra questions with Chinese characteristics.@*Results@#A total of 1 150 valid questionnaires were retrieved, accounting for about 20% of all the Chinese thoracic surgeons. The surgeons participating in this survey came from all over the country, most of whom were experienced professionals with high academic titles.For lung cancer patients, 66.96% (770/1 150) of the surgeons suggested that VTE prophylaxis should start 1 day after lung cancer resection, and 64.61% (743/1 150) of the surgeons suggested extending after discharge. For esophagestomy patients, and 48.35% (514/1 063) of the surgeons suggested that there was no need for patients to extend VTE prophylaxis after discharge. More than half of the surgeons participating in this survey made decision of the method and duration of VTE prophylaxis after lung cancer resection (53.91% (620/1 150)) or esophagectomy (52.49% (558/1 063)) depending on the clinical experience.Low molecular weight heparin was the common choice of most surgeons in VTE prophylaxis. More than half of the surgeons thought that previous history of VTE, advanced age, complicated with thrombophilia, obesity (body mass index>30 kg/m2), duration of surgery longer than 6 hours and family history of VTE were key risk factors of the occurrence of postoperative VTE.@*Conclusions@#The results of this survey are highly credible and are a good reflection of the current status of VTE prevention and treatment after thoracic surgery in China. This survey will play an important role in promoting VTE prevention and treatment in Chinese thoracic surgery department, it will also provide data support for government setting new policies, hospital construction of VTE prevention and control as well as raising physicians′ awareness.
