Object. The authors conducted a study to evaluate the long-term outcomes and prognostic factors for survival in a large series of patients treated by gamma knife surgery (GKS) for non—small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) brain metastases. Methods. The study is based on the retrospective analysis of clinical and radiological records obtained during a 10-year period (1993–2003), concerning 836 lesions in 504 patients. The lesions were primary in 86% and recurrent 14% of the cases; they were solitary in 31%, single in 29%, and multiple in 40%. The mean follow-up period was 16 months (range 4–113 months). The most common histological types were adenocarcinoma (51%) and squamous cell carcinoma (27%). Dose planning parameters were as follows: mean target volume 6.2 cm3 (range 0.06–22.5 cm3); mean prescription dose 21.4 Gy (range 15.5–28 Gy); and mean number of isocenters 6.7 (range one–18). Progression-free and actuarial survival curves were calculated using the Kaplan—Meier method. The main factors affecting survival were determined by unimultivariate analysis (log-rank test and Cox proportional hazard models). Analysis of long-term outcomes seemed to confirm that GKS is a primary therapeutic option in these patients. The 1-year local tumor control rate was 94%. The overall median survival was 14.5 months, with extremely rewarding quality of life indices. The recursive partitioning analysis classification was the dominant prognostic factor. Conclusions. Gamma knife surgery is a useful treatment for brain metastases from NSCLC.

Background Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy combined with lymphadenectomy is widely utilized worldwide for treating non-small cell lung cancer. We evaluated the long-term survival outcomes of this approach and determined the prognostic factors of overall survival. Methods This prospective observational study was performed in patients with non-small cell lung cancer who were subjected to video-assisted lobectomy and lymphadenectomy from 2012 to 2016. Independent prognostic factors were determined via uni- and multivariable Cox models. Results There were 109 patients with the mean age of 59.2 years and males accounted for 54.1%. Postoperative staging determined 22.9% of stage IA, 31.2% of stage IB, 16.5% of stage IIA and 29.4% of stage IIIA. Median follow-up time was 27 months. The overall survival rate after 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years was 100%, 85.9%, 65.3%, 55.9% and 55.9%, respectively. In univariable analysis, smoking (hazard ratio (HR) [95% confidence interval (CI)]: 2.50 [1.18–5.31]), Tumor--nodes--metastases (TNM) stage (IIA: 7.60 [1.57–36.9]; IIIA: 14.3 [3.28–62.7] compared to IA), histological differentiation (moderately differentiated: 4.91 [1.04–23.2]; poorly differentiated: 8.25 [1.91–35.6] compared to well differentiated), lymph node size ≥1 cm (8.22 [3.11–21.7]), tumour size ≥3 cm (4.24 [1.01–17.9]), radical lymphadenectomy (6.67 [3.14–14.2]) were identified as prognostic factors of the long-term survival. In multivariable analysis, only radical lymphadenectomy was an independent prognostic factor (HR [95% CI]: 3.94 [1.41–11.0]). Conclusion Video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy combined with lymphadenectomy is feasible, safe and effective for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. The long-term outcomes of this method are favourable, especially at the early stage of cancer.

Abstract Objective The present study has compared the long-term outcomes between performing wedge resection (WR) and microwave ablation (MWA) as first-line treatment of stage I non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with tumors adjacent to the pericardium. Materials and Methods Between January 2014 and December 2018, a total of 223 consecutive patients with T1N0 NSCLC underwent first-line treatment by WR (n = 155) or image-guided lung MWA (n = 68). This study has compared the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates between the two treatments before and after propensity score matching. Subgroup analysis of these outcomes was conducted based on the distance from the pericardium. Results The median follow-up time was 47 months. Propensity matching yielded 56 pairs of patients. In the two matched groups, the PFS rates in the WR group at 3 and 5 years were 66.0% and 56.0% and 54.0% and 36.0%, respectively, in the MWA group (P = 0.029). Meanwhile, the corresponding OS rates for the WR group at 3 and 5 years were 81.0% and 72.0% and 60.0% and 55.0% in the MWA group, respectively (P = 0.031). Subgroup analysis, done according to the treatment modality, indicated that local tumor recurrence and PFS for NSCLCs that were close but not contiguous to the pericardium were different from those contiguous to the pericardium (P = 0.018 and P = 0.025, respectively). Conclusion WR provided better long-term tumor control and OS compared to MWA for stage I NSCLC adjacent to the pericardium as a first-line treatment. MWA can be considered as an alternative option for high-risk and inoperable patients, particularly for tumors that were not contiguous to the pericardium.
