This study aims to compare our single-centre experience with carotid artery surgery during the pandemic and previous years.Our retrospective analysis included all consecutive patients undergoing carotid surgery for symptomatic and asymptomatic stenosis between January 2017 and December 2021. Caseload, operation specific parameters, and demographic data as well as in-hospital outcome were compared during the COVID-19 pandemic versus previous years.A total of 623 consecutive patients were included. The caseload comparison showed an average of 112 carotid artery surgeries per adjusted year (March 16th to December 31st) from 2017 to 2019, prior to the pandemic. The caseload reduction in the first year of the pandemic (2020) was 36.6% (n = 71) and 17.9% (n = 92) in the second year (2021). No rebound effect was observed. There was no significant difference (p = 0.42) in the allocation of symptomatic and asymptomatic patients (asymptomatic patients: 37.1% prior vs. 40.8% during the pandemic; symptomatic patients: 62.9 vs. 59.2%). Major adverse event rates in years prior to the pandemic were postoperative bleeding requiring revision: n = 31 (7.1%); stroke in symptomatic patients: n = 9 (3.3%) and stroke in asymptomatic patients: n = 4 (2.5%); symptomatic myocardial infarction (MCI): n = 1 (0.2%); death: n = 2 (0.5%). During the pandemic, major adverse event rates were postoperative bleeding requiring revision: n = 12 (6.5%); stroke in symptomatic patients: n = 1 (0.9%), stroke in asymptomatic patients: n = 1 (1.3%); symptomatic MCI: n = 1 (0.5%); death: n = 1 (0.5%).Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, there has been a significant reduction in carotid artery surgery performed both in symptomatic as well as in asymptomatic patients.

Between 2000 and 2020, curative pulmonary metastasectomy was performed in 18 patients (14 males and 4 females). Clinical, demographical and surgical data were retrospectively analysed. The disease-free interval between treatment of the primary tumour and pulmonary metastasectomy ranged from one to 48 months. Survival analysis was conducted with the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. The 3- and 5-year survival rates were 84.7% and 52.9%, respectively.

The extent to which scientific activity can be achieved within these different structures is investigated on the basis of publication output.A PubMed analysis was carried out for selected authors (leader in thoracic surgery in Germany) between Jan 2012 to Dec 2021. University hospitals, DKG-certified lung cancer centres (DKG: German Cancer Society) and DGT-certified thoracic centres (DGT: German Society for Thoracic Surgery) were included.An analysis of n = 54 non-university centres (DKG certificate n = 50 and/or DGT certificate n = 22) and n = 36 university hospitals (n = 9 autonomous clinic/department) was performed. A total of n = 2414 publications were identified, with original papers (n = 1776; 74%) and publications focussing on thoracic surgery (n = 1501; 62%) being found most frequently. The publication performance of the non-university centres was n = 599 publications (11/centre) and thus significantly lower than that of the university hospitals (n = 902; 25/clinic; p ≤ 0.001). Significantly higher publication output was confirmed for autonomous (n = 560; 62/clinic) compared to non-autonomous university thoracic surgery (n = 342; 13/clinic; p = 0.003). A 10-year trend was recorded, with almost doubling of publication output from n = 105 (university: n = 63) to n = 203 (university: n = 124) publications/year. The cumulative impact factors (IF) resulted in 2845 IF (52.7 IF/clinic) for non-university centres, 6361 IF (235.6 IF/clinic) for non-autonomous and 2931 IF (325.7 IF/clinic) for autonomous university thoracic surgery.Scientific activities have increased in non-university centres, but above all in university thoracic surgery. These positive developments are in acute danger due to the upcoming political changes (Hospital Structure Act, minimum volumes). Structural changes such as independent university thoracic surgery or cooperation models with non-university centres could offer solutions.</p>","PeriodicalId":23956,"journal":{"name":"Zentralblatt fur Chirurgie","volume":" ","pages":"78-87"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139933106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
