A twenty-year analysis of the results of sleeve resection for primary bronchogenic carcinoma

WF Bennett and RA Smith

Ninety-six patients with primary bronchogenic carcinoma were treated by lobectomy with sleeve resection of the bronchus, over a 20 year period (1958 through 1977). In 80 resections undertaken prior to 1973, a 5 year survival rate of 34 percent was realized, with an operative mortality rate of 7.5 percent.Survival at 10 and 15 years has been assessed. A review of factors influencing survival has been undertaken and the biologic behavior of these pulmonary neoplasms, modified by sleeve resection, has been outlined. Of interest is the high rate of local recurrence accounting for death within 5 years postoperatively and the late incidence in the survivors of second malignancies and other diseases of surgical interest. Sleeve resection represents a surgical alternative in selected cases of bronchogenic carcinoma in which wider resection may be hazardous, and the indications should be extended to include some lesions commonly managed by pneumonectomy.
