In recent years, with the improvement of CT resolution, the reduction of radiation dose, the popularization of lung cancer screening and the enhancement of people's health awareness, the detection rate of lung nodules is higher and higher. Due to the close relationship between lung nodules and lung cancer, more and more attention has been paid to them. Although patients with early and middle stage lung cancer receive complete resection, all postoperative patients are at risk of recurrence and metastasis. Adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy can improve the survival and reduce the recurrence and metastasis. Therefore, the multidisciplinary team, as the best model, provides a standardized and individualized plan for the diagnosis and treatment of lung nodules and lung cancer patients. However, in the clinical practice, the work efficiency of the multidisciplinary team is not high, and the participation rate of patients is low; therefore the multidisciplinary doctor model with thoracic surgeons as the mainstay is a reasonable alternative.

Recently, World Health Organization/International Agency for Research on Cancer (WHO/IARC) published the World Cancer Report 2020. This report described the cancer burden of the world, the risk factors of cancer, biological process in cancer development and the prevention strategies of cancer. Based on current status of China’s cancer burden and prevention strategies, this paper briefly interpreted the key points of cancer prevention and control in the report.
ObjectiveThe clinical trial evidence and expert consensus in the airway management were systematically summarized in this guideline to provide clinical guidance for healthcare professionals.MethodsA total of 40 clinical questions were proposed by 32 experts, and 12 clinical questions were finally identified through the Delphi method and the PICO (patient, intervention, control, outcome) principle from 2019 to 2020. PubMed, Web of Science, Wanfang database and CNKI were searched from establishment of each database up to November, 2020. The evidence of 160 articles was graded according to GRADE method, including 18 in class A, 36 in class B, 69 in class C, and 37 in class D. Four symposiums were organized for discussion of the recommendations. Finally, 23 recommendations were made for these 12 clinical questions, among which 10 were strongly recommended and 13 were weakly recommended.ResultsSmoking cessation for at least 4 weeks, pulmonary function assessment and pulmonary rehabilitation exercise were recommended in the perioperative period, especially at least 1 week of pulmonary rehabilitation exercise for the patients with high risk factors. Anesthesia was maintained by inhalation or intravenous anesthesia. It was recommended to choose short acting drugs, monitor the depth of anesthesia and muscle relaxation during operation, and use protective ventilation strategy. Postoperative use of drugs and mechanical measures to prevent venous thromboembolism, the appropriate application of drainage tube, preemptive analgesia and multimodal analgesia for pain management were recommended. Inhaled corticosteroids with bronchodilators could be used in perioperative period to reduce airway hyperresponsiveness and postoperative cough.ConclusionFor perioperative airway management, smoking cessation, pulmonary function assessment and pulmonary rehabilitation exercise are recommended in the perioperative period. The rational use of anesthetic drugs and protective ventilation strategy are emphasized during the operations. Postoperative pain management and cough treatment should be strengthened, and drainage tube should be used properly.
Objective To compare the safety and efficacy of thulium laser wedge resection of the lung under uniportal thoracoscopy with the other two traditional surgical methods (mechanical cutting stapler wedge resection and segmentectomy) in the treatment of small pulmonary nodules.MethodsClinical data of 125 patients with small pulmonary nodules receiving uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery from December 2017 to December 2018 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 33 patients had thulium laser wedge resection (a thulium laser group), including 10 males and 23 females, with an average age of 59.21±11.31 years; 48 patients had mechanical stapling pulmonary wedge resection (a mechanical stapling pulmonary wedge resection group), including 17 males and 31 females, with an average age of 57.27±11.30 years; and 44 patients had pulmonary segmentectomy (a pulmonary segmentectomy group), including 21 males and 23 females, with an average age of 63.00±9.68 years. The surgical margin air leakage, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, drainage days, average daily drainage volume, fever, pain and hospitalization expenses were compared among the three groups. ResultsThe body mass index, gender, smoking history, benign and malignant pathological results, average maximum diameter of lesions and lesion location distribution were not statistically different among the three groups (P>0.05). The average age and the proportion of pleural adhesions in the thulium laser group were not statistically different from those of the other two groups (P>0.05). In the distribution of the number of lesions, the proportion of multiple lesions in the mechanical stapling pulmonary wedge resection group was higher than that of the other two groups, and there was no statistical difference between the other two groups. The intraoperative blood loss in the thulium laser group was less than that of the other two groups (P≤0.05). There was no statistical difference in the classification of surgical margin air leakage or the operation time among the three groups (P>0.05). The proportion of postoperative fever and hospitalization expenses in the thulium laser group were lower or less than those of the other two groups (P<0.05). The length of hospitalization stay and postoperative chest tube placement in the thulium laser group was significantly shorter than that of the pulmonary segmentectomy group (P<0.05), which was not statistically different from the mechanical stapling pulmonary wedge resection group (P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in the average daily drainage volume or the proportion of pain among the three groups (P>0.05). Conclusion The thulium laser wedge resection under uniportal thoracoscopy is a safe, effective and economical method for the treatment of small pulmonary nodules.
