The extirpation of an entire lung may be performed either for neoplastic disease or for inflammatory processes. Although in each instance the entire lung is removed, the technique of removal varies. When a lung is removed for neoplastic disease, it is necessary to perform a much more radical procedure in that an en bloc excision of the mediastinal ...

Extrapericardial pneumonectomy
Multimedia Manual of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2005Presentation of the technique of extrapericardial left and right standard pneumonectomy. After insertion of a disposable double-lumen endotracheal tube, the patient is positioned in lateral decubitus and a lateral thoracotomy is performed. One-lung ventilation is started after a thorough identification is performed followed by systematic nodal ...

Sleeve pneumonectomy remains a surgical challenge with specific problems of intraoperative surgical and anesthesiologic management. In the present chapter we expose the techniques currently employed in our institution. Sleeve pneumonectomy is associated with a non-negligible mortality, with figures ranging from 8% to 15%.

Thoracic Surgery Clinics, 2004
Lung cancer involving the carina can be treated by surgery, but patients must be carefully selected before the operation. Because pneumonectomy is required in addition to carinal resection, patients must be able to withstand the procedure, and they must be told that the operative mortality is 2 to 4 times higher than what is expected after standard ...

Carcinoma of the lung can involve the carina. Resection then encompasses resection of the lung with the carina. Success of this complex procedure is based on careful selection of patients, judicious use of multimodality therapies, and expert multidisciplinary care.

Chest Surgery Clinics of North America, 1995
Occasional tumors arising in the upper lobes or in the origin of either main bronchus are localized sufficiently to permit curative resection by sleeve pneumonectomy. Operative mortality is significant, but it can be lowered by careful attention to surgical and anesthetic techniques.

Throughout the last year significant advances in the operative technique and management of patients undergoing sleeve pneumonectomy, as well as better understanding of patient selection requirements, have led to improved perioperative and long-term results. Patients with N2 disease resistant to preoperative chemotherapy or chemo-/radiotherapy should be

TECHNIQUES OF PNEUMONECTOMY: Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery Pneumonectomy
Chest Surgery Clinics of North America, 1999Thoracoscopic major pulmonary resections such as lobectomies or pneumonectomies are the most difficult operations that can be attempted thoracoscopically, and still have limited routine application in thoracic surgical practice. The precise indications for thoracoscopic pneumonectomy are very rare and have not yet been defined precisely; we limited the

Pneumonectomy in cystic fibrosis
Pediatric Pulmonology, 1999A 17-year-old boy and a 12-year-old girl with cystic fibrosis (forced expiratory volume in 1 sec, 36% and 14% of predicted values, respectively) developed severe right-sided lung infections with abscess formations and complete atelectases unresponsive to medical therapy.

We report the case of a 61 yr old male, who developed a severe right-to-left shunt through a patent foramen ovale, in the absence of elevated right-sided heart pressures, two months after a left-sided pneumonectomy. This is considered to be a rare complication after pneumonectomy.
