Resection of cancer of lung and carina

T Ishihara, T Ikeda, H Inoue and S Fukai

In 3-cases in which lung cancer had occurred in the right upper lobe bronchus and had infiltrated the carina, the right upper lobe (including the lower part of the trachea, the carina, and the right main bronchus) was resected, and a new carina was created by anastomosing the trachea with the left main bronchus and the right intermediate trunk. Surgical techniques and the method for anesthesia were described in these 3 cases. To evaluate the function of the reconstructed trachea and bronchus, we made cinebronchograms at the high speed of 100 or 150 frames per second. This bronchographic movie film helped us to determine the state of the reconstructed trachea and bronchus.
