폐암에 의한 기관침범 환자에서 자가심막을 이용한 기관 성형술

In patient with lung cancer, the resection margin of right main bronchus was invaded by tumor intraoperatively. So we performed tracheal reconstruction with autologous pericardium after resection of lower trachea including carina. Postoperatively, the patient discharged well and followed up for 5 months without any evidence of tumor recurrence or restenosis.
