Modified Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) Lobectomy for Early-stage Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Detailed Description
VATS (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery) lobectomy is a relatively new minimally invasive surgical treatment for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), associated with low morbidity and mortality and effective oncologic results over the standard thoracotomy. However, this surgical procedure has not spread widely in china for several reasons. First , VATS surgery cost more than thoracotomy for thoracoscopic staples; second, the procedure of VATS lobectomy may be more difficult in china as the lack of VATS surgical equipments adjusted for smaller thoracic cavity of chinese, and more common adhesive and calcified lymph nodes due to infection and tuberculosis; Third, the surgical levels of VATS lobectomy are far from equal in china, and the Continuing Medical Education training programs of thoracoscopic surgery seem to be less efficient without major criterion.
The purpose of this study is to modify the surgical technique of VATS (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery) lobectomy for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer, to examine the feasibility of VATS lobectomy performed by less staples, and to evaluate the feasibility of VATS lobectomy performed by modified surgical equipments designed according to the experience of chinese lobectomy surgery, and to generate a chinese standard operative procedure of VATS lobectomy for technique learning and spread. The investigators will intend to recruit 250 patients each group, for 4 groups. Group A(open group) will undergo radical lobectomy via thoracotomy approach. Group B(standard VATS group) will undergo lobectomy via standard VATS approach introduced. Group C(less staples group) will undergo lobectomy via VATS approach with staples limitation. Group D(modified equipments group) will undergo lobectomy via VATS approach using VATS surgical equipments designed according to the experience of chinese lobectomy surgery. The investigators will compare two groups of patients as followed: A vs. B, B vs. C, B vs. D.

Cohorts and Interventions
Group / Cohort |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
standard VATS group
patients undergo standard VATS lobectomy using non-modified equipments,without limits of staples
|
VATS lobectomy without new equipments and limitation of staples, same with the current procedure of VATS lobectomy performed in thoracic departments of Peking university people's hospital and the Collaborators.
All procedures were conducted under general anesthesia with double lumen intubation.
The thoracoscope was introduced through 7th or 8th intercostals space on the mid-axillaries line.
The 4 cm long utility incision was made on the 4th or 5th intercostals space anterior axillary's line without rib-spreading.
A third retraction incision located on the 7th or 8th intercostals space sub-scapular line.
The surgeon stands on the ventral side of patient using an electrocautery hook and a suction device through the utility incision.
Anatomic lobectomy was performed with systemic mediastinal lymph node dissection for lung cancer patients.
|
modified equipments group
patients undergo VATS lobectomy with modified VATS lobectomy equipments designed designed according to the experience of chinese lobectomy surgery: Lobectomy Equipments Pack (Manufacturer B.J.ZH.F.Panther Medical Equipment Co.,Ltd.).
