Impact of interstitial lung disease on postoperative morbidity and 60 day mortality after pulmonary resection for lung cancer / 中华胸心血管外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the effect of interstitial lung disease(ILD) on postoperative morbidity and mortality in pulmonary resection for lung cancer patients.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed 971 patients undergoing pulmonary operation from January 2010 to January 2018 in our hospital. Clinical data including age, sex, history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD), smoking history, smoking index, American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA) classification, forced expiratory volume in 1 s(FEV1) % predict, surgical procedure, video assisted thoracoscopic surgery(VATS) or not, intraoperative blood transfusion, anesthesia time, operation time/one-lung ventilation time, blood loss, histology, postoperative morbidity, 60-days mortality, onset of acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease(AE-ILD), drainage, extubation time, and postoperative stay were collected and analyzed.Results:There were 80(8.2%) and 891(91.8%) patients in ILD and non-ILD group, respectively. AE-ILD occurred in 5 patients, with a 60-day mortality of 80%. A multivariate regression analysis identified that the sex( P=0.023), ILD( P=0.001), COPD( P=0.027) were independent risk factors for postoperative morbidity. ILD( P=0.023) and postoperative morbidity( P=0.001) were independent risk factors for 60-day mortality in multivariate analysis. Conclusion:Patients with ILD had a higher incidence of postoperative morbidity and 60-day mortality. Based on the obvious postoperative morbidity and mortality, special attention and management should be taken in ILD patients.
