Figure 2 Overall survival following EPP versus P/D in patients with epithelioid histology. EPP, extrapleural pneumonectomy; P/D, pleurectomy/decortication; MPM, malignant pleural mesothelioma; CI, confidence interval.

Figure 3 Impact of complete macroscopic resection on survival. There is no statistical difference in terms of survival between incomplete macroscopic resection in P/D patients and in complete macroscopic resection in EPP patients (p = 0.2). EPP, extrapleural pneumonectomy; P/D, pleurectomy/decortication; CI, confidence interval.
