Abstract:

Objective: To analyze the effects of smoking on perioperative and postoperative outcomes of robotic-assisted lobectomy and segmentectomy in an NCI-designated cancer center.

Methods: Data was analyzed from 1,420 consecutive patients who underwent robotic-assisted segmentectomy (n=1,370) and lobectomy (n=50) performed by three different surgeons over a 12-year period. The perioperative, postoperative, and overall survival outcomes were compared between smoking patients (n=297) and non-smoking patients (n=1,123). The perioperative outcomes that were compared include estimated blood loss (cc), surgical duration (min), chest tube days, and hospital length of stay (LOS). Postoperative complications, 30-day mortality, and overall survival (OS) were also compared. Perioperative outcomes were compared between smoking and non-smoking groups using the student t-test. 5-year OS was compared using the log-rank test.

Results: There was a significant difference in preoperative FEV1% (p<0.0001) between smoking and non-smoking groups. Non-smoking patients had a greater mean FEV.1%. The smoking group had a significantly larger proportion of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease compared to the non-smoking group (p<0.0001). The most significant differences in perioperative outcomes were chest tube duration (p<0.001) and total surgical duration (p=0.047), in which smoking patients experienced both longer chest tube duration and surgical duration. The remaining perioperative outcomes, 30-day mortality, and overall survival did not show any significant differences between both groups. The most significant differences in postoperative complications were prolonged air leak (p=0.025) and pneumonia (p=0.02), with smoking patients having a higher rate of incidence for both. Prolonged air leak was the most common complication in both smoking (67/297, 22.6%) and non-smoking patients (184/1,123, 16.4%). Pneumonia was the second most common complication in smoking patients (21/297, 7.1%).

Conclusion: The results indicate that smoking not only has a negative impact on preoperative FEV1%, but also on perioperative outcomes and postoperative complications in patients undergoing robotic-assisted pulmonary resections.
