The pathology section was recently updated to include new information about markers used to identify mesothelioma, which is difficult to diagnose. The term "malignant" is no longer used to classify mesotheliomas, because all mesotheliomas are now defined as malignant....

Challenges in Predicting Recurrence After Resection of Node-Negative Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
Thornblade LW, Mulligan MS, Odem-Davis K, Hwang B, Waworuntu RL, Wolff EM, Kessler L, Wood DE, Farjah F. Thornblade LW, et al. Among authors: wood de. Ann Thorac Surg. 2018 Nov;106(5):1460-1467. doi: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2018.06.022. Epub 2018 Jul 19. Ann Thorac Surg. 2018. PMID: 30031845 Free PMC article.
We developed a prediction model for recurrence based on five clinical variables (tumor size and grade, visceral pleural and lymphovascular invasion, and sublobar resection), and tested the hypothesis that the addition of several new molecular markers of poor long-term outc …

A Nationwide Rise in the Use of Stents for Benign Esophageal Perforation.
Thornblade LW, Cheng AM, Wood DE, Mulligan MS, Saunders MD, He H, Oelschlager BK, Flum DR, Farjah F. Thornblade LW, et al. Among authors: wood de. Ann Thorac Surg. 2017 Jul;104(1):227-233. doi: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2017.03.069. Epub 2017 Jun 1. Ann Thorac Surg. 2017. PMID: 28577842 Free PMC article.
CONCLUSIONS: The use of stents for the management of benign esophageal perforation has increased by over fourfold in just 8 years, but short-term outcomes have not changed over time for this population of patients. ...

Minimally invasive resection of early lung cancers.
Cheng AM, Wood DE. Cheng AM, et al. Among authors: wood de. Oncology (Williston Park). 2015 Mar;29(3):160-6. Oncology (Williston Park). 2015. PMID: 25772453 Review.
However, as lung cancers are detected at earlier stages, the optimal extent of lung resection for long-term cure continues to be investigated. For patients with very small-sized lung tumors and indolent lesions, cancer-free survival may not necessarily be compromised by un …

VATS versus open surgery for lung cancer resection: moving beyond the incision.
Cheng AM, Wood DE. Cheng AM, et al. Among authors: wood de. J Natl Compr Canc Netw. 2015 Feb;13(2):166-70. doi: 10.6004/jnccn.2015.0024. J Natl Compr Canc Netw. 2015. PMID: 25691608 Review.
Rather than debate incisions, thoracic surgeons should advocate for specialty care and surgical quality that assures the best short- and long-term outcomes for patients, regardless of the surgical approach....

Management of centrally located non-small-cell carcinoma.
Backhus LM, Wood DE. Backhus LM, et al. Among authors: wood de. Oncology (Williston Park). 2014 Mar;28(3):215-21. Oncology (Williston Park). 2014. PMID: 24855729 Review.
In the absence of irrefutable evidence of unresectability, however, surgical exploration should be undertaken with curative intent. Long-term outcomes can be favorable in select patients, and most of the procedures, including complex reconstructions, can be performed with …

Variation in esophagectomy outcomes in hospitals meeting Leapfrog volume outcome standards.
Varghese TK Jr, Wood DE, Farjah F, Oelschlager BK, Symons RG, MacLeod KE, Flum DR, Pellegrini CA. Varghese TK Jr, et al. Among authors: wood de. Ann Thorac Surg. 2011 Apr;91(4):1003-9; discussion 1009-10. doi: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2010.11.006. Ann Thorac Surg. 2011. PMID: 21440116
BACKGROUND: The Leapfrog Group established a minimum hospital case volume of 13 for esophageal resection in a response to known improved outcomes in larger volume centers. The aim of this study was to evaluate variation in short-term outcomes among hospitals that met the L …

Health care utilization among surgically treated Medicare beneficiaries with lung cancer.
Farjah F, Wood DE, Varghese TK, Massarweh NN, Symons RG, Flum DR. Farjah F, et al. Among authors: wood de. Ann Thorac Surg. 2009 Dec;88(6):1749-56. doi: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2009.08.006. Ann Thorac Surg. 2009. PMID: 19932230
CONCLUSIONS: Baseline health status and nonclinical factors were associated with increased utilization, nonuniform trends in utilization were observed with time, and increased utilization was associated with worse long-term outcomes. These findings have implications for qu …
