Abstract:For patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer invading the spine, induction chemoradiotherapy combined with radical en bloc resection is the key to obtaining long-term survival. With time, our operative technique evolved to a two-step surgery as we experienced numerous perioperative complications during one step surgery. The aim of our study was to assess postoperative morbimortality and long-term survival of both techniques. We retrospectively reviewed all patients who underwent en bloc resect… Show more
“…Another set of articles in this issue discuss the optimal management of patients with locally advanced disease. The first article by Drevet et al [ 3 ] focuses on tumors invading the cervical spine, whereas the work conducted by Martel-Lafay et al [ 4 ] deals with the management of unresectable stage III patients with peripheral primary tumors. Drevet et al [ 3 ] report a monocentric retrospective study evaluating two surgical techniques in this population.…”

Drevet et al [ 3 ] report a monocentric retrospective study evaluating two surgical techniques in this population. For these patients with invasion of the cervical spine, multimodal treatments have demonstrated considerable improvements in survival, and the use of induction chemoradiotherapy combined with radical en bloc resection should be used to achieve complete resection.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
