Extended combined resections of the lung vascular-atrial type include surgical interventions performed: with resection of the pericardium, pulmonary veins with the wall of the left atrium, superior vena cava, extrapulmonary departments of the pulmonary arteries and the walls of their […]

Germination of a cardiac shirt by a tumor or its metastases requires its wide excision. The resulting defect in the wall of the pericardium, especially after performing pneumonectomy, creates the prerequisites for the development of a severe complication, the “dislocation” of […]

The resection of the pulmonary veins with the area of ​​the left atrium with the right-sided localization of the tumor is much technically more difficult and dangerous, due to the peculiarities of their anatomical structure. Short, slow-moving, especially during germination with […]

Resection of the superior vena cava in lung cancer is performed with the right-sided location of the tumor, most often, with its localization in the upper lobe. The lesion of the superior vena cava can be caused both by the germination […]

Tumor lesions are relatively more common, observed in the upper aorta, in the “aortic window” and on the border of the aortic arch and the beginning of its descending part, in the region adjacent to the back surface of the […]

The question of the volume of resection for the bronchus and trachea, methods of closing the defect, prevention and treatment of the insolvency of bronchial and tracheal sutures has always been one of the key issues in pulmonary surgery. When […]

For stitching the wall of the trachea, overlaying the tracheobronchial anastomoses use nodal single stitches with a synthetic atraumatic thread, which are applied transversely at a distance of 3 mm from each other through all layers. The knots are tied outside, […]

Enhanced combined resections of the mediastinal-esophageal type include extensive subtotal resections of the mediastinal pleura, usually with resection of fragments of the large nerve trunks of the mediastinum (diaphragmatic, vagus nerves), esophagus. Among the 605 combined operations, resection of this […]

Resection of the parietal-diaphragmatic type can be attributed to peripheral, unlike other types of resection of extrapulmonary anatomical structures and organs of the thoracic cavity. They include resection of the soft tissues of the chest wall: the parietal pleura, muscles, intrathoracic […]

The simultaneous and even sequential detection of a tumor in the lung and other organs, until recently, was considered a clear sign of a patient’s hopeless condition. The development of clinical oncology and lung surgery has made it possible to […]
