title: [Economical surgery, bronchial or pulmonary, in the treatment of lung cancer].
abstract: In the present uncertainty as to the relative importance of maximum radical resection, surgical treatment of bronchial carcinoma should be guided by the state of cardio-pulmonary function and quality of survival.  In borderline cases, therefore, consideration should be given to economic resection, either parenchymal or bronchial.  Surgery was performed for bronchial carcinoma in 369 cases between 1963 and 1974, involving 30 segmental resections and 26 bronchial sleeve resections.  Favourable results are reported for the curative operations, whereas the results of palliative resections show low mortality but unfavourable longterm survival.
