    Author: Schulte HD, Irlich G, Wassner UJ.
    Journal: Langenbecks Arch Chir; 1976 Nov 15; 342():219-26. PubMed ID: 994634.
    Abstract:
    After lung resections in bronchial carcinoma, reoperation for recurrences, metastases, or secondary primary tumors is rarely possible. The possibility depneds on the extent of the primary resection, the physiological state of the patient, and the spread of the primary or secondary tumor. From 1950 to 1975 1628 lung resections were performed in Düsseldorf, with reoperation in 26 cases (1.6%). n Bremen (1964-1974) 915 lung resections were performed, with 20 reoperations (2.2%). Survival times recorded in Bremen and Düsseldorf and in the literature justify reoperation in individual cases.
