Bilateral intralobar pulmonary sequestration: therapeutic implications.

Bilateral intralobar pulmonary sequestration within the lower lobes was suggested by computed tomography and confirmed by arteriography in a 27-year-old woman. Although one side was asymptomatic, both sequestrated areas were resected using staged bilateral thoracotomies. Histopathological examination showed massive inflammation in the symptomatic as well as the asymptomatic sequestrum. To our knowledge, this is the sixth reported case of bilateral intralobar pulmonary sequestration and the third for which bilateral resection has been performed.

[Perioperative adjuvant chemotherapy with bleomycin in bronchogenic squamous cell cancer. A prospective randomized study].

Bleomycin (BLM) was given perioperatively and 3 and 6 months postoperatively in a dosage of 150 mg per course (total: 450 mg) to 37 patients with surgically resectable squamous-cell lung cancer. 37 randomized control patients with resectable squamous-cell lung cancer were compared to the chemotherapy-group. 5-year overall survival of the BLM group was 46.3%, that of the controls 40.5% (Mantel-Haenszel test; p greater than 0.05). BLM-treated stage I showed a 5-year survival of 47.9% (controls: 55%), BLM stage II 50% (controls: 33.3%), BLM stage III 40% (controls: 21.4%). The difference is not statistically significant. No severe adverse effects of therapy on either wound healing, or perioperative mortality of lung function were observed.

Bronchial carcinoid arising in intralobar bronchopulmonary sequestration with vascular supply from the left gastric artery. Case report.

We report the unique case of a large, nonmetastasizing bronchial carcinoid tumor that arose within an intralobar bronchopulmonary sequestration in a 45-year-old man. The vascular supply to the sequestrated area within the left lower lobe as well as to the carcinoid tumor originated from atypical branches of the left gastric artery and the thoracic aorta. A left lower lobe lobectomy was performed. Histologically, a typical carcinoid tumor without lymph node metastases was found (T2 N0 M0). Seven years postoperatively, the patient is without signs of recurrence.
