OBJECTIVES: Currently, inhaled nitric oxide (NO) therapy for lung transplantation is not covered by public health insurance in Japan. In this study, we evaluated the perioperative use and safety of inhaled NO therapy for lung transplantation. METHODS: Data regarding the duration of treatment and adverse events of inhaled NO therapy were collected for all lung transplantations performed from January 1, 2015, to December 31, 2019, at nine lung transplant facilities in Japan. RESULTS: During the study period, lung transplants were performed in 357 patients, among whom inhaled NO therapy was administered to 349 patients (98%). The median initial and median maximum inhaled NO doses were 10 and 20 ppm, respectively. Inhaled NO therapy was introduced during surgery and continued postoperatively in 313 patients (90%) for a median of 4 days. Significant improvements in oxygenation and decreases in pulmonary arterial pressure were observed in patients receiving inhaled NO therapy. Side effects of inhaled NO therapy, such as methemoglobinemia, were observed in 15 patients (4%), with a significant incidence in patients aged < 18 years. CONCLUSIONS: Inhaled NO therapy was performed in almost all patients who underwent lung transplantation in Japan and showed reasonable efficacy. Therefore, public health insurance coverage for inhaled NO therapy during lung transplantation is recommended.

PURPOSE: Anti-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) immunoglobulin (Ig) M production stimulated by an alloantigen is sensitive, making IgM a novel potential marker of allorejection after organ transplantation. This study examined the relationship between the serum levels of anti-HLA IgM early after clinical lung transplantation (LTx) and the post-transplant outcomes. METHODS: Thirty-one consecutive patients who underwent deceased LTx were included. Immunoreactivity against HLA was retrospectively analyzed by measuring the anti-HLA IgM levels in the serum sampled for the first 14 days after LTx. The flow panel reactive antibody technique was used. The ratio of the anti-class I IgM level at each day to baseline was obtained, and the peak IgM level was determined for each case. The correlation between the peak IgM level and subsequent development of acute rejection (AR), chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD), and survival outcomes were examined. RESULTS: The peak IgM level was a significant risk factor for AR within 90 days in univariate and multivariate analyses. In the long term, the patients with positive IgM (peak level > 1.8) tended to have a poorer CLAD-free and overall survival than those with negative IgM. CONCLUSION: Elevation of anti-HLA IgM levels early after LTx may be correlated with a higher incidence of rejection and negative clinical outcomes.

PURPOSE: Current evidence suggests that the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a prognostic factor in several types of cancer. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of clinicopathological factors, including postoperative NLR, in patients with locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) who underwent surgery after chemoradiotherapy (CRT) with or without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. METHODS: The medical records of LA-NSCLC patients treated with trimodality therapy at our institution between June 1999 and May 2019 were reviewed. The association between several clinicopathological factors and overall survival (OS) was analyzed. RESULTS: A total of 168 patients were included in this study. Regarding the prognosis, the 5-year OS rate was 68.1%, and the 2-year recurrence-free survival rate was 66.1% in the entire population. In multivariate analysis, we identified that high postoperative NLR, not pretreatment or preoperative NLR, was one of the independent factors for unfavorable OS (NLR high vs NLR low; hazard ratio = 2.45, 95% confidence interval: 1.53-3.94, p < 0.001). In addition, among patients with high postoperative NLR, patients who received postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy showed significantly better 5-year OS compared with those who did not (p = 0.016). On the other hand, postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy had no impact on the prognosis in patients with low NLR (p = 0.19). CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that high postoperative NLR was not only an independent unfavorable prognostic factor in patients with LA-NSCLC who were treated with trimodality therapy, but also a promising indicator for postoperative treatment in this population.

PURPOSE: The prognostic nutritional index (PNI), calculated based on the serum albumin levels and the total lymphocyte count, has been identified as a predictor of clinical outcomes in various fields of surgery. In this study, we investigated the relationship between the PNI and the lung allocation score (LAS) as well as the impact of the PNI on the outcomes of both cadaveric lung transplantation (CLT) and living-donor lobar lung transplantation (LDLLT). METHODS: We reviewed retrospective data for 127 recipients of lung transplantation (LT), including 71 recipients of CLT and 56 recipients of LDLLT. RESULTS: The PNI was correlated significantly and negatively with the LAS (r = - 0.40, P = 0.0000037). Multivariate analysis revealed that age (P = 0.00093), BMI (P = 0.00087), and PNI (P = 0.0046) were independent prognostic factors of a worse outcome after LT. In a subgroup analysis, survival after both CLT (P = 0.015) and LDLLT (P = 0.041) was significantly worse in the low PNI group than in the high PNI group. CONCLUSION: Preoperative nutritional evaluations using the PNI can assist with the assessment of disease severity in LT recipients and may predict survival after both CLT and LDLLT.

PURPOSE: The number of elderly patients who undergo surgery is increasing, even though they are at a high risk due to a decreased physical strength. Furthermore, sarcopenia is generally associated with a poor prognosis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS: This study included NSCLC patients ≥ 65 years old who underwent pulmonary resection in our hospital between 2012 and 2015. Sarcopenia was assessed using the psoas muscle mass index based on computed tomography at the level of the third lumbar vertebra. We elucidated the impact of sarcopenia on short- and long-term outcomes after surgery. RESULTS: We enrolled 259 patients, including 179 with sarcopenia. Patients with sarcopenia before surgery tended to have postoperative complications (p = 0.0521), although they did not show a poor prognosis. In patients with sarcopenia, a multivariate analysis revealed that postoperative complications and the progression of sarcopenia 1 year after surgery were significant risk factors for a poor prognosis (p = 0.0169 and 0.00370, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The progression of sarcopenia after surgery is associated with a poor prognosis in elderly NSCLC patients with sarcopenia. A strategy to prevent postoperative progressive sarcopenia may be necessary for improving the clinical outcome of this population.

Bronchopleural fistula (BPF) is a severe complication following lung resection. We present the case of a patient with a history of advanced lung cancer, who had undergone induction chemoradiotherapy followed by right middle and lower lobectomy, and who developed BPF after completion right pneumonectomy. Although we had covered the bronchial stump with an omental pedicled flap, BPF was found on postoperative day 19. We covered the fistula with n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) using bronchoscopy. Although we had to repeat the NBCA treatment, we ultimately cured the patient's BPF and no recurrence was observed up to 15.2 months after surgery.

Although chronic kidney disease (CKD) commonly develops after lung transplantation (LT), living-donor kid-ney transplantation (LDKT) for CKD after LT is known to provide favorable outcomes. We describe the long-term follow-up findings of a patient who underwent LDKT after bilateral cadaveric LT. A 37-year-old male underwent LDKT for CKD 18 years after receiving bilateral cadaveric LT. He developed chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) 20 years after the LT; however, at 26 years after the initial LT, he is still alive with no pro-gression of CLAD or CKD. KT could be a viable option for CKD even after LT in Japan.

Lung gangrene is a potentially fatal disease, and primary or staged surgery, depending on the patient's condition, is reported to be useful. We describe successful management, by staged surgery, of a rare case of empyema and lung gangrene complicating lung radiofrequency ablation. The patient, who was a diabetic with colorectal pulmonary metastases, underwent embolization of a pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm in the right basal segment that developed after lung radiofrequency ablation. He subsequently developed lung gangrene caused by lung ischaemia, and empyema, necessitating pleural decortication followed by open-window thoracostomy. Subsequently, right basal segmentectomy was performed, with thoracostoma closure. Staged surgery might be beneficial for high-risk patients with empyema and lung gangrene caused by lung ischaemia.

In patients with interstitial pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis is an irreversible condition that can cause respiratory failure. Novel treatments for pulmonary fibrosis are necessary. Inflammation is thought to activate lung fibroblasts, resulting in pulmonary fibrosis. Of the known inflammatory molecules, we have focused on S100A8/A9 from the onset of inflammation to the subsequent progression of inflammation. Our findings confirmed the high expression of S100A8/A9 in specimens from patients with pulmonary fibrosis. An active role of S100A8/A9 was demonstrated not only in the proliferation of fibroblasts but also in the fibroblasts' differentiation to myofibroblasts (the active form of fibroblasts). S100A8/A9 also forced fibroblasts to upregulate the production of collagen. These effects were induced via the receptor of S100A8/A9, i.e., the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), on fibroblasts. The anti-S100A8/A9 neutralizing antibody inhibited the effects of S100A8/A9 on fibroblasts and suppressed the progression of fibrosis in bleomycin (BLM)-induced pulmonary fibrosis mouse model. Our findings strongly suggest a crucial role of S100A8/A9 in pulmonary fibrosis and the usefulness of S100A8/A9-targeting therapy for fibrosis interstitial pneumonia. HIGHLIGHTS: S100A8/A9 level is highly upregulated in the IPF patients' lungs as well as the blood. S100A8/A9 promotes not only the growth of fibroblasts but also differentiation to myofibroblasts. The cell surface RAGE acts as a crucial receptor to the extracellular S100A8/A9 in fibroblasts. The anti-S100A8/A9 antibody effectively suppresses the progression of IPF in a mouse model. In idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), S100A8/A9, a heterodimer composed of S100A8 and S100A9 proteins, plays a crucial role in the onset of inflammation and the subsequent formation of a feed-forward inflammatory loop that promotes fibrosis. (1) The local, pronounced increase in S100A8/A9 in the injured inflammatory lung region-which is provided mainly by the activated neutrophils and macrophages-exerts strong inflammatory signals accompanied by dozens of inflammatory soluble factors including cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors that further act to produce and secrete S100A8/A9, eventually making a sustainable inflammatory circuit that supplies an indefinite presence of S100A8/A9 in the extracellular space with a mal-increased level. (2) The elevated S100A8/A9 compels fibroblasts to activate through receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), one of the major S100A8/A9 receptors, resulting in the activation of NFκB, leading to fibroblast mal-events (e.g., elevated cell proliferation and transdifferentiation to myofibroblasts) that actively produce not only inflammatory cytokines but also collagen matrices. (3) Finally, the S100A8/A9-derived activation of lung fibroblasts under a chronic inflammation state leads to fibrosis events and constantly worsens fibrosis in the lung. Taken together, these findings suggest that the extracellular S100A8/A9 heterodimer protein is a novel mainstay soluble factor for IPF that exerts many functions as described above (1-3). Against this background, we herein applied the developed S100A8/A9 neutralizing antibody to prevent IPF. The IPF imitating lung fibrosis in an IPF mouse model was effectively blocked by treatment with the antibody, leading to enhanced survival. The developed S100A8/A9 antibody, as an innovative novel biologic, may help shed light on the difficulties encountered with IPF therapy in clinical settings.

PURPOSE: Trimodality therapy, comprised of induction chemoradiotherapy (iCRT) followed by surgery, is a highly invasive treatment option for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancers (LA-NSCLCs; defined as a heterogenous disease). We conducted this study to investigate the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) of LA-NSCLC patients undergoing trimodality therapy, which has not been studied in detail before. METHODS: The subjects of this retrospective study were 127 patients who underwent trimodality therapy between 1999 and 2016. We measured the PNI at three points: before iCRT (pre-iCRT), before the operation, and after the operation. RESULTS: PNIs decreased significantly as treatment progressed. Patients with clinical T3/4 (cT3/4) disease had a significantly lower PNI than those with cT1/2 disease, but the extent of lymph-node metastasis did not affect the PNI at any point. Using the cut-off values of receiver-operating curve analyses, multivariable analyses revealed that a high PNI pre-iCRT correlated significantly with a better survival of LA-NSCLC patients, especially those with cT3/4 disease (hazard ratio 3.84; 95% confidential interval 1.34-12.5, P = 0.012). CONCLUSIONS: Measuring the PNI before trimodality therapy is important for predicting the clinical outcome of patients with LA-NSCLC, with differing predictive ability according to the disease extent. Perioperative intensive nutritional intervention must be considered for patients who undergo trimodality therapy for LA-NSCLC.

BACKGROUND: Pulmonary metastasectomy could be considered one of the treatment options for disease control in sarcoma patients with pulmonary metastases; however, there is little consensus regarding the suitable criteria for predicting the likely outcomes in these patients. The aim of this study was to establish a prognostic benefit scoring system based on preoperatively examined prognostic factors for sarcoma patients with pulmonary metastases. METHODS: This was a single-center, retrospective cohort study conducted in a cohort of 135 sarcoma patients who underwent a first pulmonary metastasectomy at Okayama University Hospital between January 2006 and December 2015. Based on the results of a multivariable logistic regression analysis performed to determine the factors influencing 3-year mortality, a Sarcoma Lung Metastasis Score was created and its correlation with 3-year survival was analyzed. RESULTS: The results of the multivariate analysis revealed significant differences in the disease-free interval (< 2 years vs. ≥ 2 years; odds ratio (OR) 4.22, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.67-10.70), maximum tumor diameter (≥ 15 mm vs. < 15 mm; OR 3.86, 95% CI 1.75-8.52), and number of pulmonary metastases (≥ 6 vs. < 6; OR 2.65, 95% CI 1.06-6.620). The Sarcoma Lung Metastasis Score, which was defined as the total score of these three factors, reliably predicted 3-year survival (score: 0, 89.5%; 1, 63.2%; 2, 39.0%; 3, 10.5%). CONCLUSIONS: Our newly proposed simple Sarcoma Lung Metastasis Score appears to be a useful prognostic predictor for sarcoma patients with pulmonary metastases, in that it could be helpful for the selection of appropriate treatments for these patients.

Severe scoliosis causes anatomical distortion of structures in the chest, which raises concerns about donor-recipient size-mismatch in lung transplantation (LT), so that severe scoliosis is considered as an absolute contraindication for LT. Also, postoperative right-side bronchial stenosis is one of the common complications in LT recipients with severe scoliosis. To date, the long-term outcomes in severe scoliosis patients with bronchial stenosis after LT have not been reported. A 14-year-old female patient with scoliosis and interstitial pneumonia underwent bilateral cadaveric LT. Although she developed bronchial stenosis post-LT, necessitating bronchoscopic intervention on three occasions, her lung function and perfusion recovered to the levels recorded prior to development of the obstruction, with the good condition maintained for more than 5 years after the LT. Therefore, while patients with severe scoliosis are at an elevated risk of postoperative transient bronchial stenosis, scoliosis should not always be considered as a contraindication to LT.

BACKGROUND: Trimodality therapy is a treatment option for patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC). Thoracic radiation has both early (radiation pneumonitis) and late (chronic lung injury: CLI) adverse effects on the lung. While CLI is expected to result in various problems in long-term survivors, these manifestations have not been precisely investigated. METHODS: We enrolled 112 LA-NSCLC patients who had received induction chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery, and then undergone follow-up computed tomography (CT) every 6 months for >1 year. All chest CT images were reviewed to evaluate any injury of the pulmonary parenchyma. RESULTS: CLI at 1 year after surgery and its progression (pCLI) were observed in 94 (84%) and 38 (34%) patients, respectively. Progressive lung fibrosis (PLF) as the first manifestation of pCLI was most frequent after right middle and/or lower lobectomy. Cavity formation was the subsequent manifestation after PLF, and chronic infection was the final stage of CLI. The cumulative rate of chronic infection was 76.4% at 10 years in patients with cavity formation. Ten patients with chronic infection included seven cases of pulmonary aspergillosis and two cases of cavity infections with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus or Stenotrophomonas maltophili. Among them, 4 patients required surgical interventions including completion pneumonectomy or fenestration. CONCLUSIONS: CLI is a common incidence after trimodality therapy for LA-NSCLC. CLI frequently results in cavity formation, which is a precursor of highly refractory chronic infections requiring surgical intervention. Appropriate management needs to be established for CLI developing after trimodality therapy.

While technical considerations in lung transplantation for Kartagener syndrome have been discussed, little information is available about the postoperative morphological changes of the grafted lungs. Herein, we discuss both the technical aspects and postoperative morphological adaptation of the grafted lungs in a case of Kartagener syndrome. A 46-year-old male patient with Kartagener syndrome underwent bilateral cadaveric lung transplantation. The right arterial anastomosis for transplantation of the size-matched grafts required technical elaboration. After the transplantation, we found a free space in the cardiac notch of the left lung and partial collapse of the lower lobe of the right lung due to dextrocardia. Follow-up computed tomography performed on day 42 after the transplantation demonstrated resolution of the atelectasis and morphological adaptation of the grafts into the recipient's chest cavity with dextrocardia. Considering such early morphological adaptation of size-matched grafts, lobar reduction could be avoided in lung transplantation for Kartagener syndrome.

Background: The non-technical skills for surgeons (NOTSS) system was developed as a tool to assess surgical skills for patient safety during surgery. This study aimed to develop a NOTSS-based training system for surgical trainees to acquire non-technical skills using a chest surgery scenario in a wet lab. Materials and methods: Trainees were categorized into three subgroups according to the years of experience as follows: Level A: 6 years or more; Level B: 3-5 years; and Level C: 1-2 years. Three stages of surgical procedure were designed: 1. chest wall resection and right upper lobe lobectomy, 2. right middle lobe sleeve lobectomy, and 3. right lower lobe lobectomy. One instructor was assigned to each operation table, who evaluated each participant's NOTSS scores consisting of 16 elements. Results: When comparing average NOTSS score of all the three procedures, significant differences were observed between Level A, B, and C trainees. As an example of varying elements by procedure, Level A trainees demonstrated differences in Situation Awareness, and a significant difference was observed in Level C trainees regarding the elements of Decision Making. On the contrary, no significant difference was observed among Level B trainees. In the comparison between first-time and experienced participants, a significant improvement was observed in some elements in Level B and C trainees. Conclusion: This study highlights the usefulness and feasibility of the NOTSS scoring system for surgeons with different experiences and the effectiveness of providing feedback to trainees during intraoperative handoffs in a wet lab.

We encountered a rare case of thymic cyst accompanied by mediastinitis. A 39-year-old Japanese male presented with fever and chest pain. The chest CT revealed a mass composed of a lobular cystic lesion with inflammation, suggesting the onset of mediastinitis. A definitive histological diagnosis was not obtained, and we performed a thymectomy. Pathologically, the thymic cyst was accompanied by multiple cavities, mimicking thymic cysts, caused by the inflammatory abscess. The surrounding adipose tissue showed inflammatory cell infiltrations with chronic fibrosis. These findings indicate that clinicians should be aware that thymic cysts may cause severe mediastinitis.

PURPOSE: The scheduled administration of intravenous acetaminophen (scheduled-IV-AcA) is one of the more effective multimodal analgesic approaches for postoperative pain in abdominal/orthopedic surgeries. However, there is little evidence concerning scheduled-IV-AcA after general thoracic surgery, especially when limited to video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). We investigated the efficacy of scheduled-IV-AcA administration in patients after undergoing VATS. METHODS: Ninety-nine patients who underwent VATS lobectomy or segmentectomy via an 8-cm access window and 1 camera port were retrospectively reviewed by categorizing them into groups either with scheduled-IV-AcA (Group AcA: n = 29) or without it (Group non-AcA: n = 70). Group AcA received 1 g of IV-AcA every 6 h from the end of the operation until the end of POD2. Postoperative pain was measured using a numeric rating scale (NRS) three times per day until discharge. RESULTS: NRS scores were significantly lower in Group AcA with motion (on POD1 to the first point of POD2) than in Group non-AcA. Group non-AcA was also more likely to use additional analgesics than Group AcA (39% vs. 17%, p = 0.058). CONCLUSIONS: Scheduled-IV-AcA administration is a safe and effective multimodal analgesic approach in patients undergoing VATS pulmonary resection via an 8-cm access window.

BACKGROUND: The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a key process in tumor progression and metastasis and is also associated with drug resistance. Thus, controlling EMT status is a research of interest to conquer the malignant tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A drug repositioning analysis of transcriptomic data from a public cell line database identified monensin, a widely used in veterinary medicine, as a candidate EMT inhibitor that suppresses the conversion of the EMT phenotype. Using TGF-β-induced EMT cell line models, the effects of monensin on the EMT status and EMT-mediated drug resistance were assessed. RESULTS: TGF-β treatment induced EMT in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines and the EGFR-mutant NSCLC cell lines with TGF-β-induced EMT acquired resistance to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor. The addition of monensin effectively suppressed the TGF-β-induced-EMT conversion, and restored the growth inhibition and the induction of apoptosis by the EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor. CONCLUSION: Our data suggested that combined therapy with monensin might be a useful strategy for preventing EMT-mediated acquired drug resistance.

PURPOSE: Sarcomas are among the most refractory malignant tumors and often recur as pulmonary metastasis. Although the presence of a high neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been associated with the prognosis of several malignancies, the relationship between the NLR and sarcoma with pulmonary metastasis is unclear. We investigated the impact of the NLR in patients who underwent surgical resection for metastatic lung tumors from various sarcomas. METHODS: The subjects of this retrospective study were 158 patients with metastatic lung tumors from various sarcomas, who underwent initial pulmonary metastasectomy between 2006 and 2015. We examined the clinicopathological variables, including the NLR and the characteristics of surgical procedures. Survival was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method and prognostic factors were evaluated by multivariate analysis. RESULTS: Multivariate analysis revealed significantly better survival of the group with an NLR < 2.26 immediately before the most recent pulmonary metastasectomy, in addition to such factors as the largest resected lesion being < 22 mm, a disease-free interval of > 2 years, and 3 or more pulmonary metastasectomies. CONCLUSION: The NLR immediately before the most recent pulmonary metastasectomy is a novel independent prognostic factor, which may be helpful when considering repeated pulmonary metastasectomy.
