Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor size and computed tomography attenuation of pulmonary pure ground-glass nodules are useful for predicting pathological invasiveness.

TL;DR: Tumor size and CT attenuation were predictive factors of pathological invasiveness for pulmonary GGNs and facilitated more accurate prediction of invasive adenocarcinoma than the use of these factors independently.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical outcomes in elderly patients administered gefitinib as first-line treatment in epidermal growth factor receptor-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer: retrospective analysis in a Nagano Lung Cancer Research Group study.

TL;DR: First-line treatment with gefitinib for elderly EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients was effective and well tolerated, and the results suggest that first-line gefithinib should be considered as a preferable standard treatment in elderly patients with advanced NSCLc harboring EGFR mutations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Usefulness of vessel-sealing devices for ≤7 mm diameter vessels: a randomized controlled trial for human thoracoscopic lobectomy in primary lung cancer.

TL;DR: VSD is simple and safe to use in thoracoscopic lobectomy involving mediastinal lymph node dissection for primary lung cancer and none of the VSDs used in this study presented any observable differences in quality that could lead to clinical problems.
