  • A 64-year-old male was admitted due to weight loss of 5kg during a month. Chest X-ray showed two large, lobulated masses on both lower lobe. Chest CT showed ill-defined, multilobulated mass on left lower lobe and irregular, relatively homogenous mass with air-bronchogram on right lower lobe. Left lower lobectomy and right lower lobectomy was performed sequentially with three months interval. Microscopic findings showed squamous cell carcinoma of both mass. It was thought that this patient had synchronous double primary lung cancer.

  • During the past ten years from 1972 to 1981, a total of 100 cases of bronchiectasis were treated by pulmonary resection at C.A.F.G.H. Pulmonary tuberculosis and frequent U.R.I. were the most frequent associated disease and encountered in 54% in this series. Various types of pulmonary resection were performed on 100 patients; left lower lobectomy in 40 cases, left lower lobectomy and lingular segmentectomy In 29 cases, right lower lobectomy in 12 cases, right middle and lower lobectomy in 12 cases, lingular segmentectomy in 3 cases, left pneumonectomy in 3 cases and both lower lobectomy in 1 case. Complications developed in 9 cases and 1 case among them died of sepsis following secondary opera-tion. Among complications of 9 cases, postoperative atelectasis showed in 4 cases, hemorrhage in 2 cases, bronchopleural fistula in 2 cases, pulmonary edema in 1 case. Complications were treated by conservative and secondary operative management with satisfactory result except one death. Remainders without complication showed good result without symptom in postoperative and follow-up periods.

  • Kartagener`s syndrome is a clinical entity comprising a combination of situs inversus, bronchiectasis, and sinusitis or nasal polyposis. This syndrome is rare and is usually seen in a young age group. The syndrome is punctated by recurrent upper respiratory tract infection and pneumonia. This is a report of Kartagener`s syndrome found in 18 years old male and 21 years old female patients who were received surgical treatment of bronchiectasis. The male patient was performed right transposed lingular segmentectomy and lower lobectomy and female patient was perforated left transposed middle lobectomy and lower lobectomy. Both patients were discharged with good results.

  • In the present study, we investigated and compared the cardiopulmonary and oxidative stress effects of dogs undergoing open and thoracoscopic lung lobectomy. Ten healthy dogs, 5-8 years old, weighing 9-12 kg were used. The animals were randomly assigned to one of two groups according to the type of surgical procedure; open (group 1, n=5) or thoracoscopic lung lobectomy (group 2, n=5). Cardiopulmonary parameters, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) concentrations were measured. There were statistically significant changes in arterial blood gases values in both groups. Total anesthesia and surgical times were significantly shorter in thoracoscopic lobectomy group compared with open surgery group. Increases in plasma SOD and CAT levels, and decreases in GPx levels were observed in both groups after surgery. Significant difference in GPx levels was found when the groups were compared. The GPx level was significantly lower in the thoracoscopic lobectomy group compared with the open surgery group.

  • This is a case report of surgical management of a bilateral intralobar pulmonary sequestration with horseshoe lung presenting with frequent U I with productive sputum. Simple chest X-ray showed pneumonic consolidation and infiltration on both lower lobes, and chest CT revealed multiple cystic lesions compatible with pulmonary sequestration. The aortography demonstrated two anomalous systemic arteries arising from the thoracic aorta just above the diaphragm to both sequestrums. Left lower lobectomy was performed through the left thoracotomy with ligations and divisions of the both systemic feeding arteries to the left and right sequestrum, and division of the isthmic portion of horseshoe lung without removal of right sequestrum. The patient was discharged on the postoperative loth day and followed-up till now without any sequelae and symptoms of residual right sequestration. The recent follow-up chest CT 5 months after the operation revealed spontaneous regression of the residual right sequestrum. Authors would suggested that only division of aberrant artery to sequestrum without lobectomy may be applied in uncomplicated ca e of intrapulmonary seqilestration.

  • Two cases of plasma cell granuloma of the lung, whose incidence is 0.7% in the tumor of the lung and bronchus, are managed at department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, College of Medicine, Choong Nam national University Hospital from March, 1983 to July, 1984. The plasma cell granuloma of the lung, which is usually asymptomatic, is most commonly detected in routine chest films. The prognosis of the plasma cell granuloma is good after surgical resection. One case [female] was undertaken right pneumonectomy, the other, left lower lobectomy. Both cases had uneventful postoperative courses and are well being now.

  • A very rare form of intrapulmonary cyst is an enterogenous cyst two examples of which were described by Ward and Krahl [1942]. Microscopically, the cyst wall is lined by gastric or intestinal type of mucous membrane which may include islets of pancreatic tissue; their walls contain muscle but no cartilage. We recently experienced a case of intrapulmonary enterogenous cyst. The patient was 30-year-old-male who showed chest pain and tightness after chest trauma. Chest X-ray revealed pneumothorax in both lung field with giant bullae in left upper lung field, right 6th and 7th rib fracture. Left lower lobectomy including cyst was done and the postoperative course was uneventful.

  • Carcinosarcoma is the group of neoplasms possessing both carcinomatous parenchyma and sarcomatous stroma. These tumors are relatively uncommon and may arise in variable organs. In this case, a 62-year-old male patient was admitted to our department due to left chest pain and general weakness of three months duration. The chest x-ray revealed egg-sized, relatively well defined lobulated soft tissue mass in left paracardiac area. Left lower lobectomy was performed under the preoperative impression of lung cancer. Pathologic examination of the resected lung revealed carcinosarcoma without regional lymph node metastasis. Patient is doing well at present without any chemotherapy.

  • In this article, we report a rare case of a 22-year-old male with bilateral pulmonary sequestration, treated with embolization and surgical resection. The initial plan involved staged bilateral lobectomy for both lungs and prophylactic embolization of feeding vessels for preventing unexpected hemorrhage during operation. Symptomatic right lower lobe was resected with video-assisted thoracic surgery after embolization, and the patient refused surgery of left lower lobe upon symptomatic relief. The two-year follow-up examination revealed that the patient was healthy and had no relevant discomfort.

  • The pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital malformation of the lung, concerning about the abnormal feeding systemic artery, may happen a serious complication of bleeding during operation if not recognized before operation. We experienced a case of bilateral intralobar pulmonary sequestration preoperatively confirmed by aortogram. An Aortogram demonstrated a anomalous systemic artery arising from thoracic aorta just above the diaphragm. The artery bifurcated and supplied areas of both right and left lower lobes. On the operative field, left lower lobectomy was done with devision and ligation of left branch of anomalous artery and triple ligation of remained branch of anomalous artery was done. Postoperative course was uneventful. She was discharged on postoperative seventeenth day.
