STS Database Analysis: Comparing Sublobar Techniques in Stage IA Lung Cancer
CONCLUSIONS: In clinical stage IA lung cancer, relative to segmentectomy, wedge resection has comparable overall survival and lower perioperative morbidity, suggesting it is an equally effective option for the broader population of patients with clinical-stage IA lung cancer, not only those at highest risk of complications.PMID:38493921 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2024.03.008 (Source: The Annals of Thoracic Surgery)

Lepidic-Type Lung Adenocarcinomas: Is It Safe to Observe for Growth Prior to Treating?
CONCLUSIONS: Nodal involvement is relatively uncommon in early-stage LPAs but steadily increases with tumor size and is associated with dramatically worse survival. This data can be used to inform treatment decisions when evaluating LPA patients.PMID:38490310 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2024.03.003 (Source: The Annals of Thoracic Surgery)

Epidemiology of Postoperative Junctional Ectopic Tachycardia in Infants Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
CONCLUSIONS: JET is treated in 6% of patients with substantial center variability. JET contributes to increased postoperative resource utilization. High center variability warrants further study to identify potential modifiable factors which could serve as targets for improvement efforts to ameliorate deleterious outcomes.PMID:38484909 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2024.03.002 (Source: The Annals of Thoracic Surgery)

Hybrid Interventions in Congenital Heart Disease: A Review of Current Practice and Rationale for Use
CONCLUSIONS: There is a growing body of evidence which supports the use of hybrid interventions in congenital heart disease. But important questions remain regarding improved survival and other long-term outcomes like neurocognition that might impact widespread adoption as a primary treatment strategy.PMID:38462049 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2024.03.001 (Source: The Annals of Thoracic Surgery)
