Bronchoscopic debulking followed by bronchoplastic procedure helps in limiting lung resection in a bronchial carcinoid: a case report.
Indian Journal of Surgical Oncology 2014 September
Bronchoplasty is a conservative procedure in lung surgeries used in the past for patients with poor functional status but recently these procedures have been performed in low grade malignant tumors of lung avoiding extensive morbid procedure like pneumonectomy without compromising the oncologic outcome. We describe a case of bronchial carcinoid treated by bronchoscopic intervention followed by wedge bronchoplasty. The importance of bronchoscopic debulking of the tumor for accurate assessment of its extent has been highlighted. A parenchyma preserving pulmonary resection can then be performed with bronchoplastic technique, thus avoiding pneumonectomy.
