Popis:	A case illustrating the value of aggressive respiratory training in improving the prognosis of lung cancer complicated by low pulmonary function is reported. Preoperative and postoperative respiratory training enabled the patient with chronic respiratory failure to survive a lengthy operation and eventually breathe without assistance. The patient has survived more than 71 months, and experiences only exertional dyspnea at the time of publication. Aggressive preoperative and postoperative respiratory management may make more of the growing number of lung cancer patients eligible for standard surgical procedures.
