Abstract:
Objective The aim of this study is to review the surgical experience of bronchoplasty and pulmo-nary arterioplasty in treatment of central-type lung cancer. Methods From 2003 to 2005,36 cases of patients with central-type lung cancer underwent bronchoplasty and pulmonary arterioplasty. There were 28 males and 8 females with a mean age of 62 years. Accordlng to pTNM classification. 5 cases were in stage ⅡI B,and 27 in stage Ⅲ A and 4 in stage Ⅲ B. Histologically,there were 24 cases of squamous cell carcinoma,6 cases of adenocarcinoma,1 case of small cell lung cancer and 5 cases of adenesquamous carcinoma. Results No patients died in the perioperative peri-od. The overall 1-,3-, and 5-year survival rate were 74% (26/35) ,48% (11/23) and 33% (3/9) ,respectively.Conclusion The results suggest that bronchoplasty and pulmonary arterioplasty can decrease the proportions of total pneumonectomy and exploratory thoracetomy and expand the indication of operation. Bronchoplasty and pulmonary ar-terioplasty can be achieved with satisfactory outcome for central-type lung cancer,especially for those patients with ad-vanced lesions or poor pulmonary function.
