“…In conclusion, either ICTx or ICTx + RT is a safe option in LN-positive NSCLC patients who are candidates for RAVTS lobectomy. This concurs with previous reports regarding morbidity and early mortality following postinduction thoracotomy and conventional VATS for NSCLC (3,18,19). These results lend support to the conclusions of multiple phase-III trials and meta-analyses that resection after induction therapy, particularly with lobectomy, can be safely performed so as to provide an OS benefit (1,3,4,11,12).…”

“…Evans et al also reported a higher rate of RLN injury following induction therapy, but did not report on rates of pulmonary embolism or of tracheal/bronchial injury (18). Overall, complications were seen at a rate within reasonable range of those reported in recent literature with thoracotomy and conventional VATS (3,18,19).…”

“…Our finding that right-sided pneumonectomy is associated with worse perioperative mortality when compared with left-sided pneumonectomy is consistent with previous studies [3,4,[9][10][11][12][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. In addition, we observed no significant differences in long-term survival between right-sided and left-sided pneumonectomy.…”

“…In a study on thoracic surgery (esophageal), Rice et al [64] noted a 34% risk of atrial arrhythmias in subjects receiving previous chemotherapy. Additionally, a significant incidence of PAF was reported in surgical lung cases after induction therapy [65]. Moreover, in this context, inflammation may potentially explain this phenomenon [66].…”
