Intraoperative diagnosis of lymph node metastasis during segmentectomy for non‐small cell lung cancer by rapid immunohistochemistry using noncontact alternating current electric field mixing

Abstract: Background: Although lobectomy is considered the standard surgery for any non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), recent evidence indicates that for early NSCLCs segmentectomy may be equally effective. For segmentectomy to be oncologically safe, however, adequate intraoperative lymph node staging is essential. The aim of this study was to compare the results of a new rapid-IHC system to the HE analysis for intraoperative nodal diagnosis in lung cancer patients considered for segmentectomy. Methods: This retrospect… Show more

“…One of the reasons is that anatomic segmentectomy for early (≤2 cm) peripheral lung cancer is an oncologically safe and reasonable alternative to lobectomy, but only when there is adequate intraoperative nodal staging, as surgeons cannot complete the segmental/ subsegmental lymph node dissection for the remaining lung segment. 22,23 The new I/C-SUV ratio demonstrated better specificity and should serve as a simple and noninvasive procedure for predicting accurate nodal staging before planning segmentectomy.…”

“…True values were obtained from histopathological examination, while predicted values were obtained from the RF model considered useful for diagnosis of lymph node metastasis in which normal tissue and cancer cells are mixed heterogeneously coexist, and the method has been applied to the rapid diagnosis of regional lymph node metastasis in aggressive reduction surgery for early lung cancer. 15 Actually, R-IHC offers an excellent method of rapid diagnosis that is currently being studied for clinical application. However, some limitations need to be considered, especially the difficulty in distinguishing between thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1)-positive CRMPT and PLAC.…”

“…We have previously reported the effectiveness of the semi-dry dot-blotting (SDB) method of detecting intraoperative lymph node (LN) metastasis as a quick, costeffective procedure that does not require special technical expertise (12). Moreover, another study described intraoperative LN diagnosis during segmentectomy using rapid immunohistochemistry and noncontact alternating current electric field mixing (13). Second, air-leak management is also important.…”
