Wedge Resection Offers Similar Survival to Segmentectomy for Typical Carcinoid Tumors
Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery(2022)
摘要
Current guidelines recommend anatomic lung resection of typical bronchopulmonary carcinoids. Typical carcinoid tumors have excellent prognosis and sublobar resection has been associated with noninferior long-term survival. It's unclear whether wedge resection is acceptable for small typical carcinoid tumors. We hypothesize there is no difference in survival between wedge resection and segmentectomy for Stage I typical bronchopulmonary carcinoid tumors. Using the National Cancer Database from 2010 to 2016, we identified clinical T1N0M0 typical bronchopulmonary carcinoid tumors by wedge resection or segmentectomy. Short-term outcomes included length of stay, lymph nodes evaluated, pathologic node status, positive margin status, and 90-day mortality. Primary outcome was overall survival and estimated using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. 821 patients were identified: 677 receiving wedge resection, 144 receiving segmentectomy. Segmentectomy was more commonly performed in an academic setting (70.0% vs 57.3%, P = 0.005). The mean tumor size for segmentectomy was 1.7 cm versus 1.4 cm for wedge resection (P < 0.001). There was no difference in LOS, positive margin status, and 90-day mortality between groups. There were significantly more lymph nodes evaluated in segmentectomy patients (median 4 vs 0, P < 0.001), but there was no difference in positive lymph node status (5.3% vs 2.6%, P = 0.165). The OS was similar between wedge and segmental resection (P = 0.613): 3-year survival (93.5% vs 92.8%) and 5-year survival (83.8% vs 84.9%). Wedge resection and segmentectomy have similar survival for Stage I typical bronchopulmonary carcinoids in a large national database. This analysis suggests nonanatomic, parenchymal-sparing resection should be considered an appropriate alternative for Stage I typical bronchopulmonary carcinoids.
