title: [Surgical treatment of bronchial carcinoid].
abstract: 84 patients with bronchial carcinoid tumors were analysed on during of 28 years. 26 of them were detected by radiography and 58 by symptoms. The bronchoscopy with biopsy is the most important diagnostic procedure. The preoperative histological or cytological diagnosis was correct in 25 cases. The suspicion was given only in 39 patients. The surgical therapy was carried out in all cases with conventional resection of lung as well as parenchyma preserving methods. We used atypical or typical segmental lung resections, bronchotomy with direct suture, sleeve or wedge resection of the bronchus and fenestration of bronchus with closure of the window with free skin graft. The prognosis after surgical treatment is very good. The 5-year-survival was 89%.
