Abstract:
Purpose:To evaluate the clinical effects and indications of surgical treatment of non small lung cancer invading the left atrium and great vessels and trachea carina. Methods:From August 1998 to Auguest 2003, we performed operations on patients with non-small lung cancer invading the left atrium in 3 cases, invading the descending aorta in 1 case, invading trachea carina in 3 cases; all the patients have been examined to exclude distant metastasis, including nuclear bone scan to exclude bone metastasis; there were 2 cases of left pneumonectomy and one of right pneumonectomy invading the left atrium, there were 3 cases of right sleeve pneumonectomy invading the trachea carina. For the cases invading the descending aorta, we performed the operation with atrium-aorta bypass, Pathology examination: all of the cases were squamous lung cancer, staging of T 4N 0M 0 for 6 cases,T 4N 2M o for 1 case. Results:No complication, follow up: 6 cases survived more than 1 year,1 case survived more than 9 months;4 cases were alive for more than 3 years, 1 case invading the atrium died in 30 months because of brain metastasis,1 case invading the carina died in 15 months because of pulmonary infection. Conclusions:For localized advanced non-small lung cancer invading the aorta and invading the carina and the atrium, if we selected the patient correctly and with a good surgical technique with complete radical resection of the tumor ,we can acquire good results.
