ABSTRACT
This proposal aims to serve as a tool and assist surgeons in the treatment of thoracic neoplasms during COVID-19 pandemic. It is based on the literature review published so far, in the opinion of individuals specialized in the field of thoracic oncology and not necessarily on evidence-based instructions. We recognize that management strategies are dynamic and must be determined individually, depending on the equipment and tools available for cancer treatment in each institution. In addition, its application will vary according to the severity of COVID-19 in each region.
RESUMO
Esta proposta tem como objetivo servir de ferramenta e auxiliar cirurgiões no tratamento de neoplasias torácicas durante a pandemia de COVID-19. Baseia-se em revisão de literatura publicada até o momento, na opinião de indivíduos especializados no campo da oncologia torácica e não necessariamente em instruções baseadas em evidências. Reconhecemos que as estratégias de gestão são dinâmicas e devem ser determinadas individualmente, dependendo dos equipamentos e ferramentas disponíveis para o tratamento do câncer em cada instituição. Além disso, sua aplicação variará de acordo com a gravidade do COVID-19 em cada região.
