Video-mediastinoscopic resection of a long bronchial stump and reclosure of bronchial insufficiency after pneumonectomy.
Bronchial stump insufficiency after pneumonectomy is a severe problem and there is still debate about the appropriate method (transthoracic or transsternal) for reclosure. Access through a sterile operative field for a successful redo-procedure seems to be important so an alternative to the open methods could be the video-mediastinoscopy as it allows approaching the bronchial stump via the medi...
متن کاملVideo-assisted contralateral treatment for bronchial stump diastasis after left pneumonectomy.
Postoperative bronchial stump failure is a life-threatening complication, and several surgical approaches and procedures have been developed to close the stump. In this report, we describe a case of left mainstem bronchial stump diastasis after pneumonectomy for lung cancer, in which the bronchial stump was re-closed using a contralateral approach with video-assisted thoracic surgery, with good...
متن کاملValue of radiotherapy for tumour on the bronchial stump after resection for bronchial carcinoma.
Two groups have been selected from 1000 patients who had lobectomy or pneumonectomy for bronchial carcinoma. The first group was of 26 patients with tumour affecting the mucosa of the resected bronchial margin reported histologically at the time of surgery. Twelve of these were given postoperative radiotherapy but with no apparent benefit, either in the incidence of recurrence of tumour at the ...
متن کاملBronchial stump recurrence after surgery for bronchial carcinoma.
In 10 out of 295 patients (3.4%), followed-up after radical resection for non-small cell bronchial carcinoma in the period from 1980 until 1986, bronchial stump recurrence developed. A good relationship was found between relapse time (4-52 months) and distance between the primary tumour and bronchial resection line (1-7 cm) (i.e. 5-8 months.cm-1) in 8 of the patients (p less than 0.01). The mea...
متن کاملMediastinoscopic Bilateral Bronchial Release for Long Segmental Resection and Anastomosis of the Trachea
The extent of resection and release of the trachea is important for successful anastomosis. Bilateral bronchial dissection is one of the release techniques for resection of the lower trachea. We present the experience of cervical video-assisted mediastinoscopic bilateral bronchial release for long segmental resection and anastomosis of the lower trachea.
