  • Title: [A case of simultaneous off-pump CABG and left lower lobectomy via left anterolateral thoracotomy].

    Abstract:
    Surgical management for simultaneous pulmonary resection and cardiac surgery remains controversial. We report a case of coexisting lung carcinoma and angina pectoris who was managed successfully with a concomitant operation via the left anterolateral thoracotomy through the fourth intercostal space. After left lower lobectomy, left anterior descending and distal circumflex arteries were anastomosed with composite left internal thoracic and radial artery grafts without use of cardiopulmonary bypass. Both less invasive CABG and curative resection of lung carcinoma were achieved with these procedures.
