[Analysis of postoperative complications after pneumo-n-ectomy using thoracic morbidity and mortality (tmm) system in nsclc patients for a 5-year period].

Aim: Postoperative complications after pneumonectomy for NSCLC depend on the extension of surgery, comorbidities and accurate registration of any adverse event. The aim of the study was to evaluate the short-term results after standard and extended pneumonectomy in NSCLC patients according to the TMM grading system.

Material And Methods: We included 216 NSCLC patients consecutively submitted to pneumonectomy at our institution from January 2009 to December 2013 in the retrospective study performed on data prospectively collected in an electronic clinical database.

[Lung-preserving surgical treatment of patients with bronchial carcinoid].

Isolated bronchus resection for central cancer was performed in 25 patients including preoperative bronchoscopic removal of exophytic tumor in 20 (80%) observations in thoracic department of P. Gertsen Moscow Research Cancer Institute. According to morphological study typical carcinoid was diagnosed in 23 (92%) patients, atypical - in 2 (8%) cases.

[Endobronchial surgery and photodynamic therapy for the treatment of multiple primary lung cancer].

Endoluminal endoscopic surgery and fotodynamic therapy were used in treatment of 104 patients with multiple primary lung cancer (MPLC), or more exactly, of trachea and lobar and segmental bronchi. Diagnostic division included videobronchoscopy of high resolution in with light and NBI-regimen; autoflourescent and 5-ALA-induced fluorescent videobronchoscopy, endosonography, computed tompgraphy or magnetic resonance imaging of the thorax and epithelial mucine (MUC-1) immunohistochemical analysis of scarificates. Result of treatment strongly depended on the size of primary tumor.
