    Abstract:
    The answer to the title of atypical resections of lung cancer is controvers. The experiences about a long time shows there is'nt a difference between the 5-year-survival-rate after lobectomy and pneumonectomy in the same stages. From 1970-1986 we carried out 195 atypical resections of lung cancer. The postoperative stage pT1-2N0M0 was constituted in 149 patients. The 5-year-survival-rate of this patients is'nt different to the results after lobectomy. Such resections are a very good method in the surgery of lung cancer and for the rehabilitation of such patients.
