was shorter than 180 days and other 23 patients were metachronous group. Results: Among 42 patients with DPM, there were no significant differences in basic characteristics. Median overall survival was 118.97 ± 6.39 months. There was no significant difference in overall survival between synchronous group and metachronous group (p ¼ 0.921). Multivariate analysis revealed that higher lung cancer stage, postoperative therapy due to lung cancer, liver cirrhosis, and history of hypertension were independent factors for overall survival.

Methods: Patients who received surgery for malignant pulmonary tumor invading left main PA, PA proximal to the first branch (usually A3), from 2011 through 2015 in our institute were retrospectively reviewed. Results: Among 32 eligible patients (Table 1), 31 (97%) patients received complete resection with pneumonectomy (n¼4) or lobectomy with PA-reconstruction (n¼27). Pericardiotomy was necessary for proximal control of

main PA in 12 patients, and combined bronchial sleeve resection and reconstruction were performed in 11 patients. Postoperative complications occurred in 7 patients, but a > grade 3 complication (ARDS) occurred in only one patient who received pneumonectomy. There was no operative or in-hospital death. Conclusion: Lobectomy with PA-resection and reconstruction was feasible to avoid pneumonectomy for tumor invading proximal left PA. Keywords: lung tumor, Angioplasty, Left main pulmonary artery
P1.08-065 Resection of Isolated Brain Metastasis Improves Outcome of Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Patients: A Retrospective Multicenter Study Topic: Surgery for Locally Advanced and Advanced NSCLC Julia Fuchs,1 Martin Früh,2 Alexandros Papachristofilou,3 Lukas Bubendorf,4 Catherine Schill,5 Lorenz Jost,6 Alfred Zippelius,1 Sacha Rothschild1 1Medical Oncology, University Hospital Basel, Basel/Switzerland, 2Kantonsspital St. Gallen, St. Gallen/Switzerland, 3Radiation Oncology, University Hospital Basel, Basel/Switzerland, 4Insitute of Pathology, University Hospital Basel, Basel/Switzerland, 5 Medical Oncology, Kantonsspital Baselland Liestal, Liestal/Switzerland, 6Medical Oncology, Kantonsspital Baselland Bruderholz, Basel/Switzerland Background: Metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is an incurable disease. Selected patients with solitary brain metastasis from NSCLC can achieve long-term survival following metastasectomy. We analyzed the outcome of all consecutive and unselected patients undergoing resection of brain metastases in two cancer centers in Switzerland to assess safety and efficacy of brain metastasis resection in NSCLC. Methods: 119 consecutive NSCLC patients undergoing surgical resection of brain metastases from two centers in Switzerland (University Hospital Basel, Cantonal Hospital St. Gallen) between 2000 and 2014 were analyzed. Measured outcomes were extent of resection, resection status, postoperative complications and overall survival (OS). We used the log-rank test to compare unadjusted survival probabilities and multivariable Cox regression to investigate potential prognostic factors with respect to OS.

Results: Median age was 60.5 years, 56% were male, 74% were smokers, 55% had adenocarcinoma. Median OS of the whole cohort was 18.0 months. 1-year survival rate was 63%, 12% of patients were alive after 5 years. In total, 146 brain metastases were resected; the maximum number of resected metastases was 4 (median: 1). Median diameter of resected metastases was 25 millimeters (range, 6-70 mm). About half of metastases were localized in the frontal cortex or the cerebellum. 86% of patients received postoperative radiotherapy. 63% of patients were treated with whole brain radiation, 12.6% received stereotactic radiotherapy. Median dose of postoperative radiotherapy was 30 Gy. Patients not receiving adjuvant radiotherapy (n¼11) had a significantly worse outcome (median OS 9.0 vs. 20.2 months, p¼0.002). Patients with more than one brain metastasis (n¼21) had a significantly worse outcome compared to those with a solitary metastasis (median OS 13.5 vs. 19.5 months, p¼0.006). Also patients with extracerebral metastases (n¼33) had a significantly poorer outcome (median OS 14.0 vs. 23.1 months, p¼0.005). Patients with non-squamous histology (n¼98) had a better outcome than patients with squamous cell carcinoma (median OS 22.6 vs. 12.0 months, p¼0.019). 21% of patients experienced postoperative complications, including need for surgical reintervention (5.8%), neurological deficits (4.2%), infection (4.2%), stroke (3.4%) and others (11.8%). The occurrence of postoperative complications was not associated with outcome. In the multivariate analysis existence of extracerebral metastases and resection of more than one brain metastasis were independent negative prognostic factors. Conclusion: Patients with isolated brain metastasis from NSCLC in the absence of extracranial metastasis should be evaluated for metastasectomy. Prospective trials are needed to characterize the patient population experiencing the greatest benefit from a surgical procedure. Keywords: Brain metastasis, metastasectomy, Radiotherapy, Prognosis
