No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Available studies suggest that regional anesthesia-analgesia may decrease the occurrence of recurrence/metastasis in patients after cancer surgery. However, evidences from prospective studies are still lacking. The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effect of epidural anesthesia-analgesia on recurrence-free survival in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery.

Conditions

  • Lung Cancer
  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Anesthesia, Epidural
  • Neoplasm Recurrence, Local
  • Neoplasm Metastasis

Interventions

DRUG

General anesthesia alone

General anesthesia is performed during surgery; patient-controlled intravenous analgesia is provided after surgery.

DRUG

Combined epidural-general anesthesia

Combined epidural-general anesthesia is performed during surgery; patient-controlled epidural analgesia is provided after surgery.
