Results No surgical death occurred. The main postoperative complication was arrhythmia, acute pulmonary edema and pneumonia, with incidence as 41. 86%. The 1-,3- and 5-year postoperative survival rate was 79.1% ,30.2% and 11.6%. Conclusions The intrap-ericardial pneumonectomy skill not only can improve resection rate, reduce exploration rate, but also offer more oppor-tunity of further therapy in a part of locally advanced lung cancer.
