title: [Local advanced lung cancer invaded thoracic vertebral bodies with unruptured cerebral aneurysm].
abstract: A 57-year-old man presented with the chief complaint of left shoulder pain in June 2001, and paridrosis of left upper trunk and left upper limb in July 2001. Head magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed 8 mm sized unrupture aneurysm of left middle cerebral artery, and chest computed tomography (CT) showed the lung tumor invaded thoracic vertebral bodies. The local advanced lung carcinoma (cT4N0M0) and unrupture aneurysm of left middle cerebral artery was diagnosed. The prevented clipping of unrupture aneurysm was performed at 11th September 2001, and left upper lobectomy, hemivertebrectomy and reconstruction of thoracic vertebral body (Th 3-5) with Modul' ICS at 12th October 2001. The pathological findings revealed squamous cell carcinoma. The staging was pT4N0M0, IIIB. The postoperative course was uneventful. After the radiotherapy (50 Gy), chemotherapy (gemcitabine and vinorelbine) was performed. But the radiation pneumonia was occurred and chemotherapy was intermitted. The steroid was administrated due to the radiation pneumonia, and the complication was improved. He discharged at 17th April 2002 and had no recurrence. The prevented clipping of unrupture cerebral aneurysm and the reconstruction of thoracic vertebral body (Th 3-5) with Modul' ICS were useful for the radical operation of the local advanced lung cancer.
