Article Synopsis
- Pneumonectomy, a major surgical procedure for treating pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors like carcinoid tumors, requires careful planning due to its high morbidity and mortality risks.
- A study analyzed 21 patients who underwent pneumonectomy over 21 years, finding a 65.4% five-year survival rate, with a median hospital stay of eight days and no perioperative deaths.
- The results suggest that pneumonectomy can be an effective treatment for low-grade malignancies, with the importance of radical lymph node dissection highlighted for improving patient outcomes and survival rates.
