Survival analysis revealed a significant difference in overall survival (OS) between the two groups; however, no significant differences existed in the disease-free survival or in the OS for stage I disease. Postoperative complications led to poor prognoses. Cox regression analysis revealed statistical significance for the Brinkman Index, the ratio of the pulmonary artery diameter to the ascending aorta diameter (PA:A), and the alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient. Only the PA:A ratio remained significant after multivariate analysis, with a higher ratio associated with better survival.\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSION\u0000In elderly patients with NSCLC, surgical resection should not be denied because of age alone.

Most studies have reported the feasibility and safety of robotic surgery based on acceptable morbidity and mortality compared to open or video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS). Furthermore, there are accumulated data to indicate longer operation times and shorter hospital stay in robotic surgery.

METHODS This study was designed as a single arm, multicenter, and open-label phase III clinical trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of chemical pleurodesis using mistletoe extraction (ABNOVAviscum(®) Injection). References of other agents in chemical pleurodesis were investigated to compare efficacy and safety. Efficacy was evaluated by followed up chest X-ray and changes of clinical symptoms and Karnofsky performance scale. Safety was evaluated by serious adverse event (SAE) and changes of laboratory findings. A follow-up period was 4 weeks after last pleurodesis.

However, management of the root and/or ascending aorta through a mini-invasive incision is not so frequent. The aim of this study is to report our initial experience with surgery of the ascending aorta through a ministernotomy approach. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 102 patients treated for ascending aorta disease through a ministernotomy. Several types of surgeries were performed, including isolated or combined surgical procedures. Pre-operative and operative parameters and in-hospital clinical outcomes were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS Patient mean age was 63.9 ± 13.6 years (range 29-85). There were 33 (32.4%) female and 69 (67.6%) male patients. Preoperative logistic EuroSCORE I was 7.4% ± 2.1%. Mean cardiopulmonary bypass and aortic cross-clamp time were 123.7 ± 36.9 and 100.8 ± 27.5 min, respectively. In-hospital mortality was 0%. CONCLUSIONS Our experience shows that surgery of the ascending aorta with or without combined procedures can be safely performed through an upper ministernotomy, without compromising surgical results.
