title: [Economic operations in the surgical treatment of cancer of the lung].
abstract: Retrospective analysis of case records of 75 patients who were subjected to resection of a lung in a volume less than lobectomy showed that 2 types of economical operations are carried out today on patients with lung carcinoma: atypical resection and segmentectomy. According to the authors, such operations accounted for 2.4% of all lung resections for this disease. The main indication for radical resection of the lung in a volume less than lobectomy is stage I peripheral non-small-cell carcinoma (T1N0M0) in patients with serious concomitant diseases. Economical resection of the lung may be carried out in occasional cases with stage II of the disease (T2N0M0) and as a palliative measure. The late-term results provide evidence of the oncological expediency of economical operations in stage I peripheral carcinoma: for instance, 5- and 10-year survival of patients in such cases is 68.4 and 38.4%, respectively.
