ObjectiveTo analyze the surgical techniques and perioperative patient management of bronchial sleeve resection and plasty, carinal resection and reconstruction, and angioplasty in the treatment of locally advanced central type of lung cancer and summarize the experiences. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 21 locally advanced central type of lung cancer patients with bronchial sleeve resection and plasty, carinal resection and reconstruction, and angioplast in our hospital from December 2011 through November 2014. There were 17 males and 3 females with a mean age of 63.2±6.2 years. All operations were successful. The time of operation was 3.29±0.75 h. The hospitalization time was 25.48±22.31 days. No death ocurred during perioperative period. Postoperative complications were found in 3 patients, including 2 patients with atelectasis and 1 patient with bronchopleural fistula. ConclusionBronchial sleeve resection and plasty, carinal resection and reconstruction, and angioplasty apply to treat locally advanced central type of lung cancer not only maximally remove the lung cancer tissue, but also maximally reserve the healthy lung tissue.
