ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the association between operative time and postoperative outcomes.BACKGROUND:
The association between operative time and morbidity after pulmonary lobectomy has not been characterized fully.METHODS:
Patients who underwent pulmonary lobectomy for primary lung cancer at our institution from 2010 to 2018 were reviewed. Exclusion criteria included clinical stage ≥IIb disease, conversion to thoracotomy, and previous ipsilateral lung treatment. Operative time was measured from incision to closure. Relationships between operative time and outcomes were quantified using multivariable mixed-effects models with surgeon-level random effects.RESULTS:
In total, 1651 patients were included. The median age was 68 years (interquartile range, 61-74), and 63% of patients were women. Median operative time was 3.2 hours (interquartile range, 2.7-3.8) for all cases, 3.0 hours for open procedures, 3.3 hours for video-assisted thoracoscopies, and 3.3 hours for robotic procedures ( P =0.0002). Overall, 488 patients (30%) experienced a complication; 77 patients (5%) had a major complication (grade ≥3), and 5 patients (0.3%) died within 30 days of discharge. On multivariable analysis, operative time was associated with higher odds of any complication [odds ratio per hour, 1.37; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.20-1.57; P <0.0001] and major complication (odds ratio per hour, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.21-1.64; P <0.0001). Operative time was also associated with longer hospital length of stay (ß, 1.09; 95% CI, 1.04-1.14; P =0.001).CONCLUSIONS:
Longer operative time was associated with worse outcomes in patients who underwent lobectomy. Operative time is a potential risk factor to consider in the perioperative phase.
