Modern thoracic surgery in lung carcinoma
Abstract
2,268 patients were operated for lung carcinoma in the period from 1990 to 2000. One hundred patients (3.5 %) were operated repeatedly. Hospital mortality was 9 %. Atypical and segment resections caused local relapses in 20 %. The intervention volume did not effect the perspective life expectancy. Longer period between primary and subsequent interventions was associated with better long-term prognosis. Patients with metachronous tumors had better prognosis when compared with patients having local relapses of a tumor. Synchronous and solitary primary tumors had poor prognosis, thus, they should be considered as early-metastasizing tumors.
