Abstract
|
|
|
Thirteen patients with lung cancer have undergone bronchoplastic procedures from January 1991 to July 1994 in Kyung Hee univ. Hospital.
Among them, twelve patients were male and one patient was female from 33 to 76 years of age (mean 56.6*11.5 years of age)
The pathologic diagnoses were squamous cell carcinoma in twelve patients and adenoid cystic carcinoma in one patient.
The bronchoplastic procedures consisted of seven right upper sleeve lobectomies, one right middle sleeve lobectomy, one left lower sleeve lobectomy and four sleeve pneumonectomies. In these sleeve pneumonectomies, right sleeve pneumonectomy was
done in
three patients and the other was left sleeve pneumonectomy. Including the four sleeve pneumonectomies, carinoplasty was performed in seven patients. Postoperatively, we carried out bronchoscopic suction of intrabronchial secretions in necessary
for
the
prevention of postoperative complication.
All except one were discharged without any complication and have been in good condition. Postoperative mortality was in one patient who expired 25days after right middle sleeve lobectomy with respiratory failure.
