Rationale: Amyloidosis is a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by extracellular deposition of amyloid fibrils. Lung carcinoma is rarely reported to be associated with AA amyloidosis. With regard to the manifestation of amyloidosis infiltrating organs, most of the cases focus on the heart, liver, kidneys, and peripheral nervous system.

We present the case of a 66-year-old woman who underwent right inferior lobectomy for pulmonary carcinoma and developed persistent bronchopleural fistula (BPF) that was not amenable to surgical intervention (two surgical failures). The patient presented with a persistent cough and dyspnoea, which was treated with a hybrid procedure using fluoroscopy and bronchoscopy. A 7 mm Amplatzer septal occluder device (ASOD) was successfully inserted into the BPF.

Cellular schwannoma is a rare variant of schwannoma, showing high cellularity and a low mitotic index. A 64-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with a 2-month history of productive cough. Chest computed tomography showed an endobronchial tumor with complete atelectasis of the right lower lobe.

Objectives: Middle lobe syndrome is a well-known clinical condition. In this retrospective study, we report our experience with a similar clinicopathological condition affecting the left lower lobe.
Methods: The data of 17 patients with atelectasis or bronchiectasis of the left lower lobe who underwent lobectomy during the period from January 2000 to December 2011 were reviewed.

Objective: The role of induction therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) invading the thoracic inlet is unclear. We reviewed our experience with induction chemoradiation followed by surgical resection for NSCLC invading the thoracic inlet.
Methods: We performed a retrospective review of 44 consecutive patients with NSCLC invading the thoracic inlet, treated with induction chemoradiation (two cycles of cisplatin and etoposide concurrently with 45Gy of radiation) followed by surgical resection between 1996 and 2007.
