Objective To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of endoscopic mucosal resection with circumferential incision(EMR-CI)and endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)for the rectal neuroendocrine neoplasm(RNEN).Methods Databases such as PubMed,the Cochrane Library,Embase,Web of Science,SinoMed,China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang Data and Weipu database were searched by computer.The retrieval time limit was Nov.22,2022.The Chinese and English literatures on the efficacy of EMR-CI vs ESD in treatment of RNEN patients were collected.According to inclusion and exclusion criteria,the included literatures were screened,extracted data,and evaluated the methodological quality by Newcastle-Ottawa scale(NOS),Meta-analysis was performed using Rev Man 5.3 software.Results Seven clinical control studies were included,including 199 cases in the EMR-CI group and 443 cases in the ESD group.Results of Meta-analysis of validity outcome indicators,there was no significant difference in histological complete resection rate between the EMR-CI group and the ESD group(O(R) = 0.56,95%CI:0.30～1.02,P = 0.060);The endosopic complete resection rate of EMR-CI was similar to that of ESD with no significant difference(O(R) = 0.33,95%CI:0.09～1.17,P = 0.090);The size of lesions removed by EMR-CI was smaller than that of ESD with significant difference(WMD =-0.86,95%CI:-1.33～-0.40,P = 0.000);The time EMR-CI required to remove the lesion was significantly shorter than that of ESD(WMD =-12.48,95%CI:-16.42～-8.54,P = 0.000).The positive rate of horizontal resection margin of EMR-CI was similar to that of ESD,with no significant difference(O(R) = 1.74,95%CI:0.64～4.75,P = 0.280);The positive rate of vertical resection margin was significantly higher than that of ESD(O(R) = 2.41,95%CI:1.09～5.32,P = 0.030).Due to the low local recurrence rate and distant metastasis rate,Meta-analysis couldn't be compared.Safety outcome index showed that,there were no significant differences in the incidence of total complications,bleeding and perforation among groups.Conclusion In the treatment of RNEN,EMR-CI can achieve the endosopic complete resection,histological complete resection and positive rate of horizontal resection margin similar to ESD without increasing surgical complications and significantly saving surgical time.However,attention should be paid to the differences between EMR-CI and ESD in positive rate of vertical resection margin.

Objective:To explore the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of anatomical partial lobectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 3 336 patients with lung nodules underwent anatomical partial lobectomy in our center from November 2013 to November 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. We set the safety margin distance according to the imaging feature of the lesion. The surgeons then anatomically detached the major vessels and bronchus in this region, resected the targeted lung tissue along the plane, and completed the resection of anatomical pulmonary lobe and clean and sampling of systemic lymph nodules.Results:A total of 668 cases were multiple nodules and 2 668 cases were solitary pulmonary nodules. According to the postoperative pathological results, 283 cases were benign, 1 197 cases were preinvasive lesions (including 38 cases of atypical adenomatous hyperplasia, 445 cases of adenocarcinoma in situ and 714 cases of minimally invasive adenocarcinoma), 1 713 cases were invasive adenocarcinoma, 73 cases were non-adenocarcinoma and 70 cases were metastatic carcinoma. Among 1 786 invasive primary lung cancers, 11 cases received preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and their postoperative pathologic diagnoses were stage ypIA. Other 1 775 cases who did not receive postoperative neoadjuvant treatment included 1 587 cases in stage ⅠA, 112 cases in stage ⅠB, 3 cases in stage ⅡA, 18 cases in stage ⅡB, 37 cases in stage ⅢA, 9 cases in stage ⅢB, 9 cases in stage Ⅳ. The average operation time was (127.3±55.3) minutes, and the mean postoperative hospital stay was (4.8±2.4) days. The incidence rate of complications (grade>2) was 1.1%(38/3 336), and no death occurred during 30 days after operation.Conclusion:Anatomic partial lobectomy has good clinical applicability, safety and effectiveness, which is worthy of clinical application and recommendation.

Objective:To explore the safety and therapeutic effect of programmed death 1 (PD-1) antibody combined with chemotherapy as a neoadjuvant therapy for patients with stage Ⅱ to Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods:Thirteen patients, who had been diagnosed as stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ NSCLC and received PD-1 inhibitor plus chemotherapy as a neoadjuvant treatment in National Cancer Center/Cancer Hospital were recruited. The patients received consecutive neoadjuvant chemotherapy for 21 days as a cycle and the therapeutic efficacy was evaluated after two cycles.Results:At the last time of follow-up on December 2, 2019, the objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) of these patients were 61.5% (95% CI 30.9%-92.1%) and 100%, respectively. The downregulation rate of disease stage was 61.5% (8/13). The resectable rate was 38.5% (5/13), among them, the major pathologic response (MPR) was 60.0% (3/5) and the complete pathologic response (CPR) was 20.0% (1/5). The neoadjuvant chemotherapy displayed a low incidence of adverse reaction. The main grade 3 to 4 toxicities were neutropenia (38.5%) and leukopenia (23.1%). There was no significant immune-related toxicity. The safety and tolerability of perioperative period of patients underwent resection were promising. Conclusions:Immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy as a neoadjuvant treatment is an effective, low-toxicity treatment manner, which has perioperative safety and high rate of MPR for patients with resectable NSCLC. It is a promising treatment option for patients with stage Ⅱ to Ⅲ NSCLC.

The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) clinical practice guideline of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in 2018 points out that anatomic pulmonary resection is a preferred option for early stage NSCLC. With the development of video-assisted thoracoscopy, minimally invasive thoracic surgery represented by thoracoscopy has been widely used in clinical practice. Video-assisted thoracoscopic segmentectomy has become one of the treatment options for early stage NSCLC. Clinical studies have found that sublobar resection can achieve similar results and preserve more pulmonary function in the treatment of early stage NSCLC compared with lobectomy, but the changes of pulmonary function after segmentectomy are still controversial. This article focuses on the research progress of pulmonary function changes in NSCLC patients after video-assisted thoracoscopic segmentectomy.

Objective The role of planned neoadjuvant radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy in the non?radical resection of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma was unclear. The study aimed to evaluate their therapeutic effect and analyze the prognostic factors. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who received neoadjuvant radio therapy ( 33 patients) and concurrent chemoradiotherapy (119 patients) from January 2004 to December 2016 in our single?institution database.The survival rates were calculated by Kaplan?Meier method. The prognostic factors were analyzed by using Log rank test and Cox proportional hazards model. Results The median follow?up was 29.8 months. One hundred and one patients survived more than 3 years. The rates of overall survival (OS) and disease?free survival ( DFS) at 3 years were 63.9% and 55.6%, respectively.The rates of complete, partial and minimal pathological response of the primary tumor were 50.3%, 38.4%, 11.3%, the corresponding 3?year OS were 75.5%, 57.4%, 27.3%( P＜0.001) and 3?year DFS were 72.0%, 44.7%, 17.6%(P＜0.001), respectively.The postoperative lymph node metastasis rate was 27.0%. The 3?year OS and DFS of the lymph node positive group was 45.6% and 32.8%, significantly lower than 70.8% and 63.7%of the negative group (both P＜0.001).The 3?year OS and DFS of pathologic stage Ⅰ,Ⅱ,ⅢA,ⅢB andⅥ A were 76.2%, 57.4%, 64.7%, 35.0%, 33.3%( P＜0.001) and 70.1%, 49.3%, 41.2%, 22.1%, 33.3%(P＜0.001), respectively.The operation?related mortality was 3.3%. Multivariate analysis showed that chest pain, postoperative respiratory failure, pathological differentiation, more than 15 lymph node dissection and ypTNM stage were the independent prognostic factors of OS ( P＜0.05 for all). Conclusions The planned neoadjuvant radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy for the non?radical resection of advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma could result in favorable survival. The chest pain, postoperative respiratory failure, pathological differentiation, the number of lymph node resection and ypTNM stage are the independent prognostic factors of the prognosis of these patients.

BACKGROUND: Surgeons are the direct decision-makers and performers in the surgical treatment of patients with lung cancer. Whether the differences among doctors affect the survival of patients is unclear. This study analyzed the five-year survival rates of different thoracic surgeries in patients undergoing surgery to assess the physician's impact and impact. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of five years between 2002-2007 in the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, for surgical treatment of lung cancer patients. According to different surgeons grouping doctors to compare the basic information of patients, surgical methods, short-term results and long-term survival differences. RESULTS: A total of 712 patients treated by 11 experienced thoracic surgeons were included in this study. The patients have nosignificant difference with gender, age, smoking, pathological type between groups. There were significant differences in clinical staging, surgery type, operation time, blood transfusion rate, number of lymph node dissection, palliative resection rate, postoperative complications and perioperative mortality. There was a significant difference in five-year survival rates among patients treated by different doctors. This difference can be seen in all clinical stage analyzes with consistency. In the multivariate analysis, it was suggested that surgeon was an independent factor influencing the prognosis of patients. CONCLUSIONS Thoracic surgeon has a significant effect on the therapeutic effect of lung cancer patients.
