[Evaluation of treatment of lung cancer combined with the disease which has needed a semi-emergency operation].
Six cases of lung cancer combined with the disease which has needed semi-emergency operation, two cases of unstable angina, two of ileus due to colon cancer, one of impending rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm and one of purulent cholecystitis with cholelithiasis, were discussed. Mean age was 62.0 years (range, 36 to 73); four were male and two were female. Case 1 and 2 were admitted with anterior chest pain, Case 3 with lumbago and abdominal pain, Case 4 and 5 with an abnormal shadow on chest x-ray film and Case 6 with abdominal pain. Of the two with unstable angina, one was operated on with right upper lobectomy during the first months after aorto-coronary bypass. Of the two with colon cancer, one was operated on with right upper lobectomy during about 5 weeks after right hemi-colectomy. Case 3 with abdominal aortic aneurysm operated on with left upper lobectomy during 4 weeks after replacement of abdominal aorta. Case 4 with cholecystitis was operated on with left pneumonectomy during about 3 weeks after cholecystectomy. The postoperative course of 4 cases and the post-chemotherapy condition of 2 cases were uneventful.
