    Objective: Empyema is a complication of talc-pleurodesis that may lead to further surgical intervention and death. Therefore, the present study's objective was to identify the risk factors for the development of post-pleurodesis empyema after talc slurry pleurodesis in order to better select patients for this procedure and minimize its morbidity.Methods: Patients with malignant pleural effusion who underwent talc slurry pleurodesis at the present institution from January 2018 to January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Post-pleurodesis empyema was defined as pleural infection up to 30 days after pleurodesis. Using Cox regression analysis, significant prognostic factors for the development of empyema were examined.Results: Of the 86 patients identified for inclusion in the study, 62 were women (72%). Their mean age was 56.3 +/- 12.6 years. The median pleural drainage time was 9 days, and 20 patients (23.3%) developed empy-ema. In the univariate analysis, both drainage time (p = 0.038) and the use of antibiotics prior to pleurodesis (p < 0.001) were risk factors for pleural empyema. Multivariate analysis also identified the use of antibiotics as an independent risk factor (Odds Ratio [OR] 9.81; 95% Confidence Interval [95% CI] 2.87-33.54). Although the pulmonary expansion was not associated with empyema in the multivariate analysis, patients with less than 50% pulmonary expansion had a 4.5-times increased risk of empyema (95% CI 0.90-22.86; p = 0.067), and patients with 50-70% pulmonary expansion had a 3.8-times increased risk of empyema (95% CI 0.98-15; p = 0.053) after pleurodesis.Conclusion: The study suggests that antibiotic therapy prior to talc slurry pleurodesis may increase the risk of developing empyema. Furthermore, pleurodesis should be considered with caution in patients with long-duration chest tube placement and incomplete lung expansion.

    Current morbimortality and one-year survival after pneumonectomy for infectious diseases
    (2023) D'AMBROSIO, Paula Duarte; MARIANI, Alessandro Wasum; JR, Eserval Rocha; MEDEIROS, Israel Lopes de; OLIVEIRA, Leonardo Cesar Silva; NETO, Antero Gomes; TERRA, Ricardo Mingarini; PEGO-FERNANDES, Paulo Manuel
    Objective: Identify the one-year survival rate and major complications in patients submitted to pneumonectomy for infectious disease.Methods: Retrospective data from all cases of infectious disease pneumonectomy over the past 10 years were collected from two reference centers. The authors analyzed: patient demographics, etiology, laterality, bronchial stump treatment, presence of previous pulmonary resection, postoperative complications in the first 30 days, the treatment used in pleural complications, and one-year survival rate.Results: 56 procedures were performed. The average age was 44 years, with female predominance (55%). 29 cases were operated on the left side (51%) and the most frequent etiology was post-tuberculosis (51.8%). The overall incidence of complications was 28.6% and the most common was empyema (19.2%). Among empyema cases, 36.3% required pleurostomy, 27.3% required pleuroscopy and 36.3% underwent thoracoplasty for treatment. Bronchial stump fistula was observed in 10.7% of cases. From all cases, 16.1% were completion pneumonectomies and 62.5% of these had some complication, a significantly higher incidence than patients without previous surgery (p = 0.0187). 30-day in-hospital mortality was (7.1%) with 52 cases (92.9%) and 1-year survival. The causes of death were massive postoperative bleeding (1 case) and sepsis (3 cases).Conclusions: Pneumonectomy for benign disease is a high-risk procedure performed for a variety of indications. While morbidity is often significant, once the perioperative risk has passed, the one-year survival rate can be very satisfying in selected patients with benign disease.

    Robotic Lung Volume Reduction Surgery With Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
    (2022) ROCHA JUNIOR, Eserval; TERRA, Ricardo Mingarini; CARDOSO, Paulo Francisco Guerreiro; ABDALLA, Luis Gustavo; FERNANDES, Lucas Matos; ALBUQUERQUE, Andre Luis Pereira de; BARRA, Silvia Maria Pinella Helaehil; PEGO-FERNANDES, Paulo Manuel
    Lobectomy for consolidation of failed endoscopic lung volume reduction for emphysema has been reported in selected patients with favorable results but with considerable morbidity. The challenging issues in such patients are frailty caused by severe emphysema itself, poor tolerance to single-lung ventilation, target lobe hyperinflation, and inability to use gas inflation for the minimally invasive resection. Careful planning, including use of a robotic platform and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support, can circumvent such difficulties and ensure a safe, minimally invasive resection in the high-risk emphysematous patient.

    A Case of Left Renal Vein Ligation in a Patient with Solitary Left Kidney Undergoing Liver Transplantation to Control Splenorenal Shunt and Improve Portal Venous Flow
    (2017) MARTINO, Rodrigo B.; ROCHA JUNIOR, Eserval; MANUEL, Valdano; ROCHA-SANTOS, Vinicius; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto C.; ANDRAUS, Wellington
    Objective: Rare co-existance of disease or pathology Background: Adequate portal venous flow is required for successful liver transplantation. Reduced venous flow and blood flow 'steal' by collateral vessels are a concern, and when there is a prominent splenorenal shunt present, ligation of the left renal vein has been recommended to improve portal venous blood flow. Case Report: A 51-year-old man who had undergone right nephrectomy in childhood required liver transplantation for liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma due to hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The patient had no other comorbidity and no history of hepatorenal syndrome. At transplantation surgery, portal venous flow was poor and did not improve with ligation of shunt veins, but ligation of the left renal vein improved portal venous flow. On the first and fifth postoperative days, the patient was treated with basiliximab, a chimeric monoclonal antibody to the IL-2 receptor, and methylprednisolone. The calcineurin inhibitor, tacrolimus, was introduced on the fifth postoperative day. On the sixteenth postoperative day, renal color Doppler ultrasound showed normal left renal parenchyma; hepatic Doppler ultrasound showed good portal vein flow and preserved hepatic parenchyma in the liver transplant. Conclusions: This case report has shown that in a patient with a single left kidney, left renal vein ligation is feasible and safe in a patient with no other risk factors for renal impairment following liver transplantation. Modification of postoperative immunosuppression to avoid calcineurin inhibitors in the very early postoperative phase may be important in promoting good recovery of renal function and to avoid the need for postoperative renal dialysis.
