  2. HOW PREVALENT IS THE CANCER? • There are estimated 20.000.000 patients with cancer in the world. • Each year 10 million people get cancer. • In the year 2020, this number will increase to 16 million. • In the year 2020, 60% of them will be in developing countries. • Each year 7 million people die of cancer. • In the year 2020, it will be 10 million. • The most common cause of death! • 12% of all deaths in the world • Twice more common than death due to ADIS in the year 2004

  6. Epidemiology LUNG CANCER • Leading cause of death due to cancer both in men and women in Japan. • In 2003, 41615 men (22%) and 15086 women (12%) died of lung cancer.

  7. Epidemiology • Adenocarcinoma is the most common in Western countries and Japan • Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common histopathological type in Asian countries and Turkey (45%).

  12. NSCLC’de • Previous studies have shown that: • Resectability of the tumor • Mean survival rates • Deaths due to cancer

  13. NSCLC andMetastasis screening • In patients with suspected pleural involvement (Pleural effusion) VATS is recommended if cytology comes negative twice. • Conventional pleura biopsy is not conclusive if there is no diffuse involvement. • Because the results of blind biopsy from pleural nodulations are not satisfactory. • Whereas with VATS, it is possible get samples from the nodules under direct visualization

  14. PET and lung cancer • Evaluation of solitary pulmonary nodules • Staging • Evaluating the response to treatment • Demonstration of focus of recurrent cancer • Assessment of prognostic data.

  15. Due to disappointments in long term survival after surgery as well as postoperative complications and high mortality, there are still ongoing attempts to select patients to have pulmonary resection in NSCLC Preoperative evaluation EJSO 32 (2006) 12–23

  16. Preoperative evaluation • Accompanying disorders of the patients: • Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease • Heart diseases • Diabetes • Venous system disorders affect the operative morbidity and mortality

  17. Preoperative evaluation Pulmonary function tests Blood gases Perfusion-ventilation scintigraphy of the lung DLCO Cardiopulmonary exercise tests

  18. Preoperative evaluation • The results of the tests should be evaluated together with the localization of the tumor. • For instance: • Tumor with hilar localization, obstructing the main bronchus and main pulmonary artery (Autopneumonectomy) • Peripherally located tumor that invaded more than one lobe via the fissure.

  19. Treatment of the elderly patients Even though the age of 70 is taken as the threshold, the exact definition of “old patient” is yet to be determined. Biological age is more important than the chronological age of the patient. Age only is an obscure prognostic criteria in terms of tolerability to treatment or outcome. The performance of the patient and accompanying diseases are more important.

  20. Preoperative evaluation • Mean FEV1 of 14 cases who had pneumonectomy due to advanced lung cancer in our clinic in 2005 was 62.7%. • Postoperative mortality among these cases was 7.14% (n:1). • The cause of mortalite was postpneumonectomic bronchopleural fistula and consequent empyema following neoadjuvant treatment.

  21. Treatment • It is important to differentiate NSCLC from SCLC for prognosis and determination of treatment strategies. • For long term survival; • Morbidity • Pulmonary functions • Smoking • Socil support is important

  22. Treatment • In NSCLC, especially in early stage tumors first coice of treatment is SURGERY. • Why? • Is the aim to prolong survival?

  23. Surgical treatment • The principle objective in early stage tumors: • Anatomical pulmonary resection. This can be achieved by: • Lobectomy • Bilobectomy • Pneumonectomy • Extended resections Sleeve Resections

  24. Surgical Objectives • Primary tumor and all lymphatic drainage of it should be excised with lobectomy or pneumonectomy. • During the dissection, the integrity of the tumor should not be compromised to prevent the dissemination of the tumor cells in the operative field. • Neighboring tissues or tissues with tumor invasion should be removed en-block. Lung Cancer (2005) 49, 25—33

  25. Surgical Objectives • Margins of resection should be checked with frozen section during the operation and resection should be extended when positive. • Mediastinal lymph nodes should be removed in an order and numbered. Lung Cancer (2005) 49, 25—33

  26. Our N2 staging strategy Contrast Thoracic CT Bulky N2 N2 (+) N2 (-) PET Inoperable Risk (+) Risk (-) (+) (-) Surgery Mediastinoscopy Surgery

  27. Surgical treatment • Mediastinal lymph node dissection: • No statistically significant difference was observed between sampling and systematic dissection with respect to survival and regional recurrence. • Some clinical trials showed that SND is better than nodal sampling for long survival • Watanabe use Naruke’s lenf node map + extended LND alternative to Cahan’s study. Long survival seems is better.

  28. Surgical Treatment • Extended resections: • When thoracic wall is involved, there is no need for RT when margin of resection is negative. • Superior sulcus tumors; Though neoadjuvant treatment has been advocated by some, others disagree due to operative difficulties and risks.

  29. Watanabe Y, Lung Cancer,2003 • Operative N2 cases n=218 • Complet. res. %70 (%30) • Uncomplet. res. %30 (%5) • cN0-1 (%36) • cN2 (%27) • Tumor wide <2cm (%48) • 2-3 cm (%31) • 3-5 cm (%27) • >5 cm ( %17) • T1-2 N2 (%34) • T3N2 (%9) • Single station. (%37) • Multiple stat. (%24)

  30. Surgery in N2 disease • Following Neoadjuvant treatment: • Mean 5-year survival is 25-30% after surgery when the tumor is downstaged • 5-8% when the stage is not changed • Continue with postoperative supplementary treatment in responsive cases…

  31. Neoadjuvant treatment • 60-75% of cases respond to Neoadjuvant treatment. • Full pathological clearance can be achieved in 20-25% of the cases • 5-year survival in N0 cases is 35% and 9% in residual nodal disease. • Decision on surgery should be made according to a new staging after neoadjuvant treatment. • CT scan is insufficient for assessment in Neoadjuvant cases. PET and mediastinoscopy are advised where possible. • In such cases, re-mediastinoscopy and operation is quite difficult. Risk of intraoperative complications are high. Usually intrapericardial pneumonectomy is required.

  32. Proposal for N2 In conclusion; Observation of a “Down-stage” after neoadjuvant chemotherapy or chemotherapy/radiotherapy in N2 cases is an important clue for the decision of surgery. The place of surgery in cases not “Down staging” is disputed and surgery should be avoided in cases requiring pneumonectomy due to high risk of mortality. The most suitable treatment modality in cases with bulky N2 is chemotherapy. Postoperative thoracic RT should be used to reduce the risk of local recurrence in completely resected cases. Cases who responded to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and were operated, same protocol should be continued in the adjuvant setting for 2-3 courses more

  33. Surgery in Stage IIIB • Requires totally patient oriented approach. • Sleeve pneumonectomy yields successful results in cases with trachea and/or carina invasion. • There is a debate on major vessel invasions: • Surgery can be performed for palliation if there is SVC invasion. • Resection can be tried in selected cases with aortic invasion.

  36. T4 tumors • To eliminate confusions encountered as a result of frequent changes in TNM staging, more data would be required to confirm staging criteria. • Satellite nodules, would be regarded as an advanced regional disease, rather than systemic disease, and patients should be given the chance of surgery.

  37. T4 tumors • Combined resections should be performed in selected cases . • The outcome is quite satisfactory when full resection can be accomplished. European Journal of Cardio-thoracic Surgery 26 (2004) 652–654
