Right lower lobectomy eight years after left pneumonectomy for a second primary lung cancer
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 be resected is already non functional. We report a case where successful right lower lobectomy for a...

Surgery for patients with cancer in the residual lung after pneumonectomy should not be excluded automatically.
