Locally invasive lung cancers pose unique challenges for management. Surgical resection of these tumors can pose high morbidity due to the invasion into surrounding structures, including the spine, chest wall, and great vessels. With advances in immunotherapy and chemoradiation, the role for radical resection of these malignancies and associated oncologic outcomes is evolving. This article reviews the current literature of extended thoracic resections with a focus on technical approach, functional outcomes, and oncologic efficacy.

“…Five-year overall survival was 55.6% and five-year diseasefree survival was 51.5%. 36 Marulli et al 37 in 2015 composed a retrospective review of 56 patients with superior sulcus tumors after induction chemoradiation between the years 1994 and 2003. The posterior approach was used in the majority of these cases.…”

“…We invited two authoritative authors and their colleagues to share their experience with the CCTS readers, Dr. Lanuti from Boston and Dr. Alifano and colleagues from Paris (8). Furthermore, we added a study on the treatment of Superior Sulcus Tumors, focusing on some new technical details and on the outcome of multimodality regimens (9).…”

Current advances and ongoing researches in chest wall surgeryThoracic surgery is a fascinating discipline for the pathophysiological problems it entails and for the variety of technical solutions it offers. Many sub-specialties are included in the disciplinary area of thoracic surgery, which are constantly evolving for the improvement of techniques and for the technological advancement of instruments and materials. Among these, chest wall surgery has certainly undergone a significant evolution in the last decade.Reconstruction of the chest wall is indicated in a variety of clinical situations, as resection of primary or secondary tumors, correction of congenital deformities, treatment of infected wounds and repair of post-traumatic flail chest. Each of these indications involves specific management of both technical and biological problems (1).The availability of new biological and synthetic materials reflects the progress of the scientific research in this field.
