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.

Pneumonectomy is indicated for centrally placed tumors when a lung-preserving operation cannot be performed for oncologic reasons. The technique of robotic pneumonectomy is still undergoing development and modification. Several pioneering surgeons have determined it to be feasible but more data are required to determine the benefits and disadvantages ...

Minimally Invasive Pneumonectomy
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2006Technical advances have resulted in the growing popularity and success of video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy for the treatment of nonsmall cell lung cancer. Several investigators have used similar techniques to safely perform pneumonectomies. Minimally invasive pneumonectomy may be indicated for patients who have centrally located malignant lesions

Successful pneumonectomy in humans was preceded by the development of techniques for lobectomy. If experience in the animal laboratory had not been ignored, fears regarding sudden occlusion of the pulmonary artery and the fate of the postpneumonectomy pleural space would have been allayed.

Elective transplant pneumonectomy
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1998The use of a single lung transplant, modified with removal of the middle lobe of the donor right lung, has been described for a term neonate with respiratory distress secondary to right-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia. The successful transplant allowed the patient to be successfully weaned from extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

Is Thoracoscopic Pneumonectomy Safe?
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2009While thoracoscopic surgical lobectomy is an established operation, the safety of thoracoscopic pneumonectomy (TP) is uncertain.From January 1, 2002, to September 30, 2008 at a comprehensive cancer center, 70 patients underwent pneumonectomy. Three patients were excluded for emergent operations. Thoracoscopic pneumonectomy was completed successfully in
