# PART II: Research, Teaching and Clinical Contributions

**A. Narrative Report**

My clinical and research Cardiothoracic Surgical career includes many
innovative, clinically applicable accomplishments. Through serendipity
we (my laboratory) discovered that laser energy could seal small air
leaks in the lung which led to experiments to determine early and late
tissue effects of commonly used lasers. We applied this experience to
patients demonstrating efficacy in preserving lung parenchyma while
removing malignancies. We used photodynamic therapy (PDT) in patients
with obstructing endobronchial and endoesophageal tumors in a national
clinical trial demonstrating safety and efficacy, eventually winning FDA
approval. We were the first to describe the relationship of the phrenic
nerve to the internal thoracic artery at the thoracic inlet and the
surgical anatomy of the thymus gland demonstrating its use as a
buttressing pedicle for tracheal surgery.

Proprietary information has been deleted.

We partnered with a company to develop a novel non-biologic absorbable
sealant, and demonstrated its ability to seal lung air leaks instantly,
as well as to withstand long-term stresses. It is now for sale in
Europe. I served as the medical monitor and chair of the data safety and
monitoring board for the U.S. trial that was completed successfully, and
approved for human use by the FDA May 12, 2000.

We studied and applied minimally invasive techniques to Cardiothoracic
Surgery and now perform many operations as same day or short stay
procedures. We designed and received a patent on a perorally--placed
device...proprietary information has been deleted.

Proprietary information has been deleted.

From 1986-1991, I directed the Cardiothoracic Surgery laboratory
activities and served as preceptor for Medical students and residents.
From 1990 to 1999, I was the Associate Program Director of the
Cardiothoracic Surgery Residency training program (spanning the programs
at Northwestern University, New England Deaconess Hospital, and Beth
Israel Deaconess Medical Center). I was responsible for the General
Thoracic Surgical training of both Cardiothoracic and General Surgery
residents. In 1999 I received a grant to integrate special training on
geriatric issues into the Cardiothoracic training program at \-\--.
Also, I was a faculty member in the Surgical Critical Care program that
was approved in 1996.

I was appointed the director of the surgical clerkship for Harvard
Medical School. This position involves coordination of all clinical
rotations at the teaching hospitals for HMS and standardization of the
curriculum and evaluation of student performance.

I served as co-editor of "Shields General Thoracic Surgery". The
American Board of Thoracic Surgery chose this 2700 page text as the
reference text for education and questions in General Thoracic Surgery.
We are in the process of rewriting the text for publication in 2004. I
also serve as Thoracic Consultant for the Stedman's Medical Dictionary.

I am currently Professor and Chairman of the Department of Surgery at
the University of South Alabama and Program Director of the General
Surgery Residency.

**C. Report of Clinical Activities**

**1. Clinical Contributions**

\_ Developed and reported on parenchyma sparing lung resections
utilizing the Nd:Yag laser which has the advantage of sterilizing the
margin of tumor resection to limit local recurrence.

\_ Developed techniques of individual pulmonary vein implantation into
the left atrium and the telescoping bronchial anastomosis without
omental wrapping which helped to pave the way for pulmonary lobar
transplantation.

\_ Helped pioneer (leading contributor of patients) the clinical use of
photodynamic therapy for obstructing endobronchial and endoesophageal
carcinoma.

\_ Active participant in cancer trials: Lung Cancer Study Group
(1984-1989), Cancer and Acute Leukemia Group B (1991-Present) as key
personnel for the minimally invasive surgery U01 NCI funded grant, and
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (1997-Present) since Beth Israel
Deaconess Medical Center joined that group. Surgical PI for Phase II
study of mediastinal restaging of patients with Stage IIIa or IIIb lung
cancer following induction therapy.

\_ Monitored national clinical trial of a novel sealant for air leaks
following lung surgery (Focal Seal), which was approved for human use
May 12, 2000.

\-- Developed and patented minimally invasive antireflux procedures for
gastroesophageal reflux disease.
