Abstract:
Objective To compare the prognostic differences between simple and complex segmentectomies. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis of patients with solid pulmonary nodules (≤2 cm) who underwent segmentectomy. Recurrence-free survival (RFS) and local recurrence rates were evaluated. Results We included57 patients undergoing complex segmentectomy and 53 patients undergoing simple segmentectomy. Among patients who did not receive adjuvant therapy, those in the complex group had a significantly lower five-year RFS than those in the simple group (69.86% vs. 85.97%, P=0.04). Furthermore, the local recurrence rate was significantly higher in the complex group (18.75% vs. 4.65%, P=0.003) than in the simple group. Conclusion For solid pulmonary nodules (≤2 cm), complex segmentectomy is associated with inferior local control and worse RFS than simple segmentectomy.
