Impact of Lifestyle Diseases on Postoperative Complications and Survival in Elderly Patients with Stage I Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that the presence of a lifestyle disease was a significant prognostic factor for postoperative complications, but not of survival, in elderly patients with stage I NSCLC. Therefore, postoperative complications may be influenced by the presence of a lifestyle disease. PMID: 28382266 [PubMed - in process]

P-132 * bronchial sleeve resection or pneumonectomy for non-small-cell lung cancer: a propensity matched analysis of long-term survival and quality of life
Conclusions: During the 5-year follow-up, pneumonectomy and sleeve lobectomy showed no significant differences in cancer-specific survival or in quality of life. However, thereafter sleeve lobectomy patients showed better survival. This advocates the use of sleeve lobectomy in central non-small-cell lung cancer when feasible. Disclosure: No significant relationships.

P-154 * bilobectomy for non-small-cell lung cancer: results of a multicentre study on 425 cases
Conclusions: Bilobectomy is associated with increased morbidity. Five-year survival is influenced by tumour stage and completeness of resection. Worse survival occurs in adenocarcinoma and bronchus intermedius involvement. Disclosure: No significant relationships.
