[Concomitant off-pump coronary artery bypass and left lower lobectomy for lung cancer with pneumoconiosis].
Surgical strategy for patients for lung cancer with coronary disease remains controversial. We performed concomitant off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (off-pump CABG: OPCAB) and left lower lobectomy with ND 2a lymph nodes dissection for lung cancer with pneumoconiosis. After CABG, due to fixed adhesion of peribronchial lymph node, left lower lobectomy was hard to carry out. Postoperative management was done with much difficulty for massive sputum and pneumonia caused by chronic inflammatory lung disease. As a result, postoperative course has been uneventful for 2 years after operation. In the concomitant OPCAB and lung resection with chronic inflammatory lung disease, whether the synchronous or 2 periods operation was appropriate was still unknown. We think that careful pre- and intraoperative assessment for this disease is important.
