Abstract:
The patients with primary lung cancer who have symptoms of angina pectoris commonly have underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) prior to lung resection. Recently, there are attempts to conduct simultaneous operation of CABG and lung resection to reduce disadvantages of staged operation, such as repeated general anesthesia, two wound incisions and delay of lung operation. These attempts generally report good results. Three patients underwent lung resection and CABG simultaneously, and had good post operative status without recurrence of cancer and angina pectoris. We conceive these as worthy cases to report.
