Pharmacokinetic evaluation of intrapleural perfusion with hyperthermic chemotherapy using cisplatin in patients with malignant pleural effusion.

Lung cancer (Amsterdam, Netherlands)
OBJECTIVES: Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) has a poor prognosis. Most patients are treated with tube thoracostomy and sclerotherapy, although its success rate is around 64%. We have investigated intrapleural perfusion with hyperthermic chemotherapy...

Advances in Uniportal Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery: Pushing the Envelope.

Thoracic surgery clinics
Uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) represents a radical change in the approach to lung resection compared with conventional VATS. Because the placement of the surgical instruments and the camera is done through the same incision, unipor...

Robotic and video-assisted thoracic surgery lung segmentectomy for malignant and benign lesions.

Interactive cardiovascular and thoracic surgery
OBJECTIVES: The experience with robotic techniques (RATS) and video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) in pulmonary segmentectomy is still limited. We evaluated our prospectively recorded database to compare two different minimally invasive techniques.

Evaluation of Federated Learning Using Standardized EHR Data in Japan.

Studies in health technology and informatics
This study addresses privacy concerns in multi-institutional data sharing by applying federated learning (FL) to develop a predictive model for prolonged air leaks (PAL) following video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Utilizing standardized el...

Assessing artificial intelligence ability in predicting hospitalization duration for pleural empyema patients managed with uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery: a retrospective observational study.

BMC surgery
BACKGROUND: This retrospective observational research evaluates the potential applicability of artificial intelligence models to predict the length of hospital stay for patients with pleural empyema who underwent uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopi...

Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of robot-assisted and video assisted thoracic surgery for early non-small cell lung cancer: A meta-analysis.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: Radical resection of lung cancer and chemotherapy are the main methods for the treatment of early lung cancer, but surgical treatment is still the key and preferred method.

Robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for mediastinal tumours in children: a single-centre retrospective study of 149 patients.

European journal of cardio-thoracic surgery : official journal of the European Association for Cardio-thoracic Surgery
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this retrospective study was to summarize our experience in performing robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) for mediastinal tumours in children to investigate its safety and feasibility.
