ABSTRACT
Background and purpose:
In recent years,sleeve resection of bronchus and pulmonary artery has been more extensively applied in treatments of lung cancer patients with poor pulmonary functions.This kind of surgery meets the basic surgical principles of lung cancer being maximum both in resecting the carcinoma of the lungs and preserving pulmonary functions,has a good prospect.Therefore,we summarize our recent experience in treating central type lung cancer by this method and discuss its principles and methods in the application of the surgical operation.Methods:
From Dec.1993 to Dec.2003,63 patients with central type lung cancer underwent sleeve lobectomy of bronchus and pulmonary artery,including sleeve resection of bronchus and pulmonary artery in 43 cases,wedge resection of bronchus and pulmonary artery in 3 cases,sleeve resection of bronchus and wedge resection of pulmonary artery in 17 cases.The surgical procedures of sleeve resection included sleeve resection of right upper lobe and pulmonary artery in 20 cases,sleeve resection of left upper lobe and pulmonary artery in 23 cases,and the length of pulmonary artery that had been respected is from 1.5cm to(4.5cm),the average length is 2.5cm.The surgical procedures of wedge resection included wedge resection of right upper lobe and pulmonary artery in 2 cases, wedge resection of left upper lobe and pulmonary artery in 1 case.The group of sleeve resection of bronchus with wedge resection of pulmonary artery included sleeve resection of right upper lobe and wedge resection of pulmonary artery in 5 cases,sleeve resection of left upper lobe and wedge resection of pulmonary artery in 12 cases.Results:
No case of death and anastomotic leak occurred.Conclusions:
Because sleeve resection of bronchus and pulmonary artery can not only effectively resect the tumor but also maximally preserve the pulmonary function at the same time,it enlarges the surgical indications of lung cancer,and is an effective and safe method for the treatment of lung cancer.
