Abstract:
Objective To assess the safety of combined lung resection and cardiac surgery in patients with synchronously occurring lung tumor and heart disease. Methods Fourteen patients with synchronously lung tumor and heart disease received lung resection combined with open heart surgery between 2003 and 2008 in our hospital. There were 11 men and 3 women with a mean age of 64 years. Lung resection consisted of lobectomy in 8 patients, sleeve lobectomy in 1, and wedge resection in 5.Pulmonary tumor pathology was squamous cell in 4 patients, adenocarcinoma in 6, undifferentiated carcinoma in 1, hamartoma in 2 and sclerosing hemangioma in 1. Cardiac procedure included coronary artery bypass grafting (off-pump) in 12 cases, mitral valve replacement in 1 and valve repair in 1. Results No patient died or needed to do re-exploration for bleeding. One patient developed atrial fibrillation postoperatively and recovered soon. One patient developed pneumonia and ARDS who bad to receive tracheostomy but finally he discharged from hospital one month later after the operation. Conclusion Combined lung tumor resection and cardiac surgery are relatively safe in selected patients, especially concomitantly with off pump coronary artery bypass grafting. Lung resection and system medinstinal lymph node dissection for lung canner through second incision had low and acceptable operative morbidity.
