What the experts said
The study was retrospective and aimed to investigate safety and efficacy of surgery in asymptomatic versus symptomatic CPAM patients
The study included 110 patients
Patients who underwent surgery before becoming symptomatic had shorter length of stay
Patients who underwent surgery before becoming symptomatic had shorter mechanical ventilation after surgery
Patients who underwent surgery before becoming symptomatic had shorter operating times
There was no significant difference in conversion rates between asymptomatic and symptomatic groups
There was no significant difference in postoperative complications between asymptomatic and symptomatic groups
It appears safer to operate on CPAM patients before they become symptomatic
