Abstract
INTRODUCTION The number of lung metastases (M1) of colorectal carcinoma (CRC) in relation to the findings of computed tomography (CT) is the object of study. METHODS Prospective and multicenter study of the Spanish Group for Surgery of CRC lung metastases (GECMP-CCR). The role of CT in the detection of pulmonary M1 is evaluated in 522 patients who underwent a pulmonary metastasectomy for CRC. We define M1/CT as the ratio between metastatic nodules and those found on preoperative CT. Disease-specific survival (DSS), disease-free survival (DFS), and surgical approach were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS 93 patients were performed by video-assisted surgery (VATS) and 429 by thoracotomy. In 90%, the M1/CT ratio was ≤1, with no differences between VATS and thoracotomy (94.1% vs 89.7%, p=0.874). In the remaining 10% there were more M1s than those predicted by CT (M1/CT>1), with no differences between approaches (8.6% vs 10%, p=0.874). 51 patients with M1/CT>1, showed a lower median DSS (35.4 months vs 55.8; p=0.002) and DFS (14.2 months vs 29.3; p=0.025) compared to 470 with M1/CT≤1. No differences were observed in DSS and DFS according to VATS or thoracotomy. CONCLUSIONS Our study shows equivalent oncological results in the resection of M1 of CRC using VATS or thoracotomy approach. The group of patients with an M1/CT ratio >1 have a worse DSS and DFS, which may mean a more advanced disease than predicted preoperatively.

Abstract
PURPOSE Radioguided occult lesion localization (ROLL) of pulmonary nodules is an alternative to hook-wire. Both required of a histological margin assessment. The activity emerging from the radiotracer allows to obtain an intraoperative scintigraphic image of the surgical specimen by a portable gamma-camera (PGC) fitted with an optical view, which provides information about the localization of the nodule in relation to the margins. The aim of this study was to evaluate the intraoperative use of a PGC for margin assessment of pulmonary nodules. METHODS ROLL technique was used in 38 nodules (36 pulmonary, 1 chest wall, and 1 pleural nodules). A PGC intraoperative image of the surgical specimen was obtained in 32. Scintigraphic results were compared to the histological assessment. Other factors, such as nodule size, distance from the pleural surface, or distance covered by the needle, were considered as possible factors for non-centered lesions. RESULTS PGC images showed that the lesion was in contact with the margins in 8/32 cases and centered in 24. In all cases in which the lesion was considered as centered by the PGC, the margins were free of involvement (NPV 100%), although the PPV is low. CONCLUSIONS The use of a PGC for margin assessment after pulmonary nodule resection is feasible and provides a high NPV in our series. In addition, the short intraoperative time required for its use makes the PGC a useful tool for providing supplementary information to histopathologic results. Further studies from different surgical teams are required for an external validation.

Abstract
Background To assess possible differences in the perioperative profile between men and women in lung cancer surgery. Methods A prospective cohort multicenter study was design, in which consecutive patients undergoing curative intent surgery for lung cancer in 24 Thoracic Services throughout Spain were included. Clinical features, tumor- and surgery-related data, postoperative complications, and mortality were recorded. Results There were 2,566 men and 741 women. Women were younger than men [mean (SD) age, 61.8 (10.8) vs. 66.5 (9.1) years, P<0.0001] and showed a more favorable preoperative characteristics, with significantly higher percentages of ECOG grade 0 and lower percentages of active smokers (28.4% vs. 33.9%; pack-years 18.8 vs. 26.9) and comorbidities [chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), diabetes, hypertension, cardiac disorders]. There were significant differences (P<0.001) in histological types and TNM stages with adenocarcinoma (70.1% vs. 46.4%) and IA stage (41.5% vs. 33.6%) more frequent in women. The use of VATS or thoracotomy was similar. The rate of pneumonectomy was higher in men (10.9%) than in women (5.1%) (P<0.001) but the distributions of other procedures were similar. Postoperative complications (pneumonitis, atelectasis, air leak, hemorrhage, fistula, empyema, wound dehiscence, and need of reintubation) were lower in women. Significant differences (P<0.0001) in the severity of postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo classification) were also found, with higher percentages of grades I (51.6% vs. 43%) and II (37.5% vs. 33%) and lower percentages of grades III and IV among women. The mean length of hospital stay was 7.8 (7.1) days in men versus 6.3 (5.0) days in women, and the 30-day mortality rate 0.3% in women versus 2.9% in men (P<0.0001). The percentage of readmissions within 30 days after surgery was also higher in men (8.6% vs. 2.8%). Conclusions This multicenter nationwide study of lung cancer surgery with curative intent shows that the perioperative profile is better in women than in men.

Abstract
BACKGROUND c-Kit + lung stem cells have been described in the human healthy lung. Their potential relation with smoking and/or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is unknown. METHODS We characterized and compared c-Kit+ cells in lung tissue of 12 never smokers (NS), 15 smokers with normal spirometry (S) and 44 COPD patients who required lung resectional surgery. Flow cytometry (FACS) was used to characterize c-Kit+ cells in fresh lung tissue disaggregates, and immunofluorescence (IF) for further characterization and to determine their location in OCT- embedded lung tissue. RESULTS We identified 4 c-Kit+ cell populations, with similar proportions in NS, S and COPD: (1) By FACS, c-Kithigh/CD45+ cells (4.03 ± 2.97% (NS), 3.96 ± 5.30% (S), and 5.20 ± 3.44% (COPD)). By IF, these cells were tryptase+ (hence, mast cells) and located around the airways; (2) By IF, c-Kitlow/CD45+/triptase- (0.07 ± 0.06 (NS), 0.03 ± 0.02 (S), and 0.06 ± 0.07 (COPD) cells/field), which likely correspond to innate lymphoid cells; (3) By FACS, c-Kitlow/CD45-/CD34+ (0.95 ± 0.84% (NS), 1.14 ± 0.94% (S) and 0.95 ± 1.38% (COPD)). By IF these cells were c-Kitlow/CD45-/CD31+, suggesting an endothelial lineage, and were predominantly located in the alveolar wall; and, (4) by FACS, an infrequent c-Kitlow/CD45-/CD34- population (0.09 ± 0.14% (NS), 0.08 ± 0.09% (S) and 0.08 ± 0.11% (COPD)) compatible with a putative lung stem cell population. Yet, IF failed to detect them and we could not isolate or grow them, thus questioning the existence of c-Kit+ lung stem-cells. CONCLUSIONS The adult human lung contains a mixture of c-Kit+ cells, unlikely to be lung stem cells, which are independent of smoking status and/or presence of COPD.
