Lobectomy with reconstruction of the bronchus and pulmonary artery is a viable therapeutic option for patients with centrally located non-small cell lung cancer. Preoperative chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy may represent an additional risk factor for postoperative complications because of increased difficulty in surgical dissection and potential impairment of bronchial healing. Although limited data are available in the literature in this setting, a few published studies have reported the possibility of performing even complex bronchovascular reconstructions after neoadjuvant treatment with no increased morbidity and mortality. This article discusses the main technical details and data from the literature.

Abstract

Lobectomy with reconstruction of the bronchus and pulmonary artery is a viable therapeutic option for patients with centrally located non-small cell lung cancer. Preoperative chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy may represent an additional risk factor for postoperative complications because of increased difficulty in surgical dissection and potential impairment of bronchial healing. Although limited data are available in the literature in this setting, a few published studies have reported the possibility of performing even complex bronchovascular reconstructions after neoadjuvant treatment with no increased morbidity and mortality. This article discusses the main technical details and data from the literature.
