Extensive combined resections were made on 190 of 705 patients operated upon for lung cancer. The results have shown a prognostic value of the factor of variability of resections for immediate results. Long-term results were better in patients with highly differentiated cancers and without a metastatic involvement of the regional lymphatic system. Favourable results with 5-year survival (20.2%) point to the expedience of the extensive combined resections in patients with the long-neglected stages of lung cancer.
