Resection of pulmonary tissue for bronchial carcinoma causes a decrease in vital capacity of 15% after lobectomy and 35–40% following pneumonectomy. After operation the lung becomes stiffer and elastic recoil pressure and transdiaphragmatic pressure at TLC increase. Maximum effort tolerance decreases aft...
In order to evaluate ventilatory function of the remaining lung after lobectomy, using dogs, we measured the pressure-volume curve of the right lower lobe separately from the other lobes. The right lower lobe bronchus was surgically separated from the other bronchi and the expiratory volume of th...
Lobectomy or pneumonectomy represents the treatment of choice for resectable early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The location of heart and grea... R Califano,JKS Hsu,Y Summers,... - 《Cancer Treatment Communications》 被引量: 0发表: 2014年 Postoperative chylous ascites: diagnosis ...
One hundred twelve patients (102 male and 10 female) underwent sleeve lobectomy for lung cancer from January 1969 to December 1991. Bronchopleural fistula occurred in 6 (5.6%), bronchovascular fistula in 2 (1.8%), pulmonary arterial occlusion in 2 (1.9%), anastomotic stricture or stenosis in...
To compare short-term mortality and long-term overall survival between sleeve lobectomy and pneumonectomy for centrally located non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods We retrospectively reviewed patients who had been radically resected for NSCLC by sleeve lobectomy with or without pulmonary arterio...
Little is known about the effect of surgical training on outcomes in thoracic surgery. The impact of surgeon training on outcomes following lung resection was examined, focusing on lobectomy as a marker operation. 328 consecutive patients who underwent lobectomy at our institution between 1 October 20...
A 63-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for evaluation of abnormal shadows in the right lung field in October 2002. Right middle lobectomy with mediastinal lymph node dissection had been performed in February 1993. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a hilar mass in the right upper lobe ...
Discharges in the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database between 1988 and 2003 with a procedure code of 32.5 (pneumonectomy), 32.4 (lobectomy) or 32.3 (segmental resection) comprised the study population. Multi-variable regression models were constructed to identify the relationship between case ...
Lobectomy for second primary lung cancer in a patient with previous pneumonectomy is seldom done because most such patients either have inadequate pulmonary reserve or metastatic disease at other sites. This is different than when this type of surgery is done for benign disease where the lobe to ...
