Popis: From January 1971 to June 1983, 35 lobectomies with bronchoplastic procedures for invasive non-small-cell lung carcinoma were performed. Sleeve lobectomy was carried out in 21 cases, wedge lobectomy in 11, and upper sleeve bilobectomy in 3. There were 23 stage I, 10 stage II, and 2 stage IIIa tumors. Completion pneumonectomy was required in 1 case for anastomotic fistula and in 2 for atelectasis of residual lung. One of these patients died later due to empyema. The 5-year probability of death with recurrence was 31.98%. The 5-year disease-free survival was 58.57%. Metastatic relapse was observed in 8 cases and locoregional recurrence in 5. A new primary lung tumor occurred in 2 patients.
