[Surgical-anatomical basis for plastic repair of the remaining pleural cavity after pulmonectomy with lobar displacement of the other lung].
Anatomo-surgical opportunities for a displacement of a lung to the operation side after pneumonectomy for the plasty of the remaining pleural cavity were studied in 17 corpses and 25 animal (dogs). The space between the sternum and mediastinum organs at the level of the II-IV ribs in human was shown to be of size enabling a lung lobe to be displaced to the opposite side as a wide "wedge". After pneumonectomy the cavity was partly filled with the pulmonary tissue and the bronchus stump of the removed lung was covered.
