title: [Primary bilateral lung cancer treated with simultaneous double-sided posterior lateral thoracotomy].
abstract: A case of a primary synchronous lung cancer is presented. Both tumors were removed via a simultaneous both sided posterior lateral thoracotomy. The radical surgical procedure produced respiratory insufficiency resulting in grave adaptation problems and the need to put the patient on a respirator. Rehabilitation allowed the patient to overcome the initial problems allowing light physical work without dyspnea.
