ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

The vascular division sequence in video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) lung resection is usually determined by the handling difficulty due to the limited surgical view through the scope. However, upfront pulmonary vein division is theoretically desirable to avoid tumor cells spreading by surgical manipulation. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is associated with poor prognosis and an increased number of circulating tumor cells. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of vascular division sequence and EMT on postoperative recurrence.

METHODS:

We retrospectively investigated tissue microarrays of 282 lung adenocarcinomas surgically resected between 2001 and 2007. We excluded the cases with segmentectomy, wedge resection, dissemination, insufficient material for staining, or lack of medical records. The effect of vascular division sequence and clinicopathologic factors on recurrence was evaluated in 195 cases.

RESULTS:

The upfront pulmonary vein division (V-first) was performed in 60 patients, and the upfront pulmonary artery division (A-first) was performed in 135 patients. The recurrence was observed in 67 patients (13 in V-first and 54 in A-first). Epithelial-mesenchymal transition activation was observed in 104 patients. Multivariable analysis with 195 patients revealed that lymph node metastasis and pleural invasion were risk factors for the recurrence. The stratified multivariable analysis showed that vascular division sequence (A-first) was a risk factor only in the EMT-negative group (91 patients). In the EMT-negative subset, the 5-year relapse-free survival rate was significantly lower in the A-first group than the V-first group (72.6% vs. 92.2%, p = 0.0136).

CONCLUSIONS:

The upfront pulmonary artery division might be a risk factor in patients without EMT activation.
