title: Combined bilateral lung resections and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.
abstract: We report herein a 74 year old man with angina who had an abnormal chest roentgenogram. Computed tomography of the chest showed a solitary 1.0-cm peripheral, noncalcified lesion in the apical segment of the left lower lobe and a 1.5-cm peripheral lesion in the posterior basal segment of the right lower lobe. Coronary angiography revealed the left anterior descending coronary artery to have a long 90% stenosis. We report here a case of a combined bilateral lung resection and off-pump coronary surgery though a midline sternotomy in a compromised lung function patient with both severe coronary artery disease and bilateral synchronous primary lung cancer.
