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. All patients underwent conventional mediastinal lymphadenectomy. Postoperative complications after bronchus resection developed in 6 (33.3%) patients. There were no deaths. Overall 5- and 10-year survival was 100% and 96% respectively. The authors consider that by strict indications combination of endoscopic removal with isolated bronchus resection preserves all pulmonary parenchyma without prejudice for surgical radicalism.

ECMO-assisted bilateral uniportal thoracoscopic carinal resection and reconstruction: a case report.

Background: Carinal resection and reconstruction are complex surgical procedures often necessitated by tumors or other pathologies involving the tracheobronchial junction. Traditional approaches to these surgeries are highly invasive. The advent of uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) along with the integration of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) offer potential advantages in reducing surgical trauma and improving outcomes.

Although relatively rare, neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) represent the most common type of endobronchial tumors in pediatric patients. Their clinical presentation lacks specificity, often leading to delayed diagnosis due to limited clinical suspicion. Mainly classified as low-grade malignant tumors (grade 1), they typically demonstrate favorable outcomes following surgical removal.

Bronchial schwannoma is a rare benign tumor traditionally managed through surgical resection. This case report describes a 69-year-old Chinese woman with an asymptomatic bronchial schwannoma incidentally discovered during routine health check-up. Computed tomography (CT) and bronchoscopy revealed a broad-based mass (27 mm × 16 mm) at the right lower lobe bronchus, causing complete obstruction of the dorsal segment and severe stenosis (>80%) of the basal segment.

A 61-year-old woman presented to our team with giant mediastinal liposarcoma causing compression of the esophagus, bronchus, and left atrium. Given the patient's advanced presentation and reduced cardiac reserve, rescue venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation was used in addition to standard robotic-assisted thoracic surgery for mass resection.

: Computed tomography (CT)-guided transbronchial metallic coil marking is useful for identifying the locations of small peripheral pulmonary lesions. Even deeply located lesions may be accurately identified and resected with adequate margins. This method is also applicable to multiple lesions.
