Open AccessClinical outcomes of left upper segmentectomy vs. lobectomy for early non-small-cell lung cancer: a nationwide database study in Japan
Given that left upper lobe and right upper and middle lobes share a similar anatomy, segmentectomy, such as upper division and lingulectomy, should yield identical oncological clearance to left upper lobectomy...

Open AccessOutcomes of surgical resection for pulmonary metastasis from pancreatic cancer
As the number of long-term survivors of pancreatic cancer is expected to increase thanks to recent advances in multidisciplinary treatment and earlier diagnoses of pancreatic cancer, we are likely to encounter...

Non-adjacent interlobar lymph node metastasis distant from small-sized peripheral non-small cell lung cancer
The optimal extent of lymph node dissection (LND) during segmentectomy is unclear. During segmentectomy, it is more challenging to dissect the non-adjacent interlobar lymph node (non-aiLN) away from the primar...

Mediastinal lymph node dissection in older patients with non-small cell lung cancer
We evaluated the impact of omitting mediastinal lymph node dissection (MLND) from the surgical treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in older patients.

Prognosis associated with surgery for non-small cell lung cancer and synchronous brain metastasis
Several reports have described extended survival after aggressive surgical treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and synchronous brain metastasis. This retrospective analysis assesses the prognostic...

Surgical resection of pulmonary metastases from meningioma: Report of a case
Meningiomas rarely metastasize, and little information on pulmonary metastasectomy from meningioma has been documented. We herein report a case of a potentially curative resection for meningioma that metastasi...

Innate immune therapy with a Bacillus Calmette-Guérin cell wall skeleton after radical surgery for non-small cell lung cancer: A case-control study
We investigated whether adjuvant immunotherapy with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) cell wall skeleton (CWS) and surgical resection was better than resection, with or without other adjuvant therapy, for patient...
