    Author: Kawahara K, Shiraishi T, Okabayashi K, Iwasaki A, Kusano T, Yamashita J, Shirakusa T.
    Journal: Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 1995 Oct; 43(5):290-2. PubMed ID: 8610291.
    Abstract:
    Usually patients with typical carcinoid tumors originating in a segmental bronchus undergo segmentectomy with or without a bronchoplastic procedure. We have performed only sleeve resection of the bronchus for a bronchial carcinoid tumor located in the left basal bronchus thus preserving the lung tissue. This was made possible by transecting and reanastomosing the pulmonary artery.
