Transarterial management of advance lung cancer.

ABSTRACT: Previous reports on transarterial treatment for lung cancer were reviewed. The bronchial arterial infusion therapy has a long history since 1964. Better local control with less doses of anti-neoplastic agents was warranted by trying transarterial administration to lung and mediastinal tumors. It is reported that both primary and metastatic tumors are fed by bronchial or other systemic arteries. The bronchial arterial embolization for hemoptysis has been introduced for clinical practice since 1973. Hemoptysis by not only benign but also malignant diseases has been well controlled by embolization. In recent decades, the technical elements for transarterial treatments have markedly improved. They make it possible to carry out precise procedures of selective catheter insertion to the tumor relating arteries. Current concepts of transarterial treatment, technical aspects and treatment outcomes are summarized. Tentative result from chemo-embolization for advanced lung cancer using recent catheter techniques was also described. It provides favorable local control and survival merits. It is considered that a population of lung cancer patients can benefit from transarterial management using small doses of anti-neoplastic agents, with less complications and less medical costs.

Project description:BackgroundPatients experiencing severe postoperative pain often show lower adherence to prescribed treatments, highlighting the clinical need for effective pain prediction and management strategies. This study aims to address this gap by identifying key risk factors associated with post-transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) pain and developing a predictive scoring system.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed data from liver cancer patients who underwent their first TACE procedure at our institution between January 2019 and December 2020. Pain levels were assessed using an 11-point numerical rating scale (NRS-11). Patients were randomly assigned to training and validation cohorts. In the training cohort, logistic regression was used to evaluate the correlation between various parameters and post-TACE pain, leading to the development of a risk prediction model. This model's performance was subsequently assessed in the validation cohort.ResultsThe study included 255 patients. Univariate analysis in the training cohort identified tumor number, size, microsphere volume, and operation time as factors associated with postoperative pain. These factors were included in a multivariate model, which demonstrated areas under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUCs) of 0.71 in the training cohort and 0.74 in the validation cohort for predicting moderate to severe pain. A nomogram was also developed for clinical application, categorizing patients with scores above 72.90 as high risk for moderate to severe pain.ConclusionsOur research successfully developed and validated a novel scoring system capable of predicting moderate to severe pain following initial TACE treatment. However, the study's predictive accuracy, as reflected by AUC values, suggests that further refinement and validation in larger, diverse cohorts are necessary to enhance its clinical utility. This work underscores the importance of predictive tools in improving postoperative pain management and patient outcomes.
