  • Title: [Concomitant lobectomy by video-assisted thoracic surgery and coronary artery bypass grafting: report of a case].
    Author: Inaoka M, Obama T, Mukai K.
    Journal: Kyobu Geka; 2002 May; 55(5):417-20. PubMed ID: 11995325.
    Abstract:
    Successful simultaneous operation for cardiac and lung disease was performed in a 71-year-old man with lung carcinoma and ischemic heart disease. Chest CT scan revealed a mass in the right lower lobe and absence of mediastinal lymphadenopathy. Coronary angiography revealed significant stenosis of the left anterior descending artery, circumflex artery and right coronary artery. We performed concomitant video-assisted right lower lobectomy with mediastinal lymph node dissection as a form of less invasive surgery and triple coronary artery bypass grafting under cardiopulmonary bypass. Curative surgery for lung carcinoma and complete revascularization for ischemic heart disease were completed. The postoperative course was uneventful.
