“…It has also been reported that preliminary bronchoscopic relief of central airway obstruction by laser photoresection [10][11][12][13][14][15] and laser photodynamic therapy [28] can improve staging with a resulting increase in the number of operable patients and with improved surgical results.…”

“…However, in one group of patients with malignant central airway obstruction, it has been shown that initial endoscopic relief by laser resection [10][11][12][13][14][15] and laser photodynamic therapy [28] helps to improve quality of life and enables better preoperative preparation with selection of most appropriate surgical techniques and reduced incidence of surgical complications and mortality.…”

Due to the high percentage of lymph-node involvement and multicentric forms found in our series lobectomy with radical lymph-node dissection appears, in our opinion, the most appropriate surgical treatment in well-differentiated forms, while more limited resection appears sub-optimal. Also, due to the finding of recurrences many years after surgery, the follow-up must be accurate and protracted in this subgroup. Only Small Cell Lung Carcinoma patients in clinical stage I and II underwent surgery with good long-term results.

Bronchoplasty is a conservative procedure in lung surgeries used in the past for patients with poor functional status but recently these procedures have been performed in low grade malignant tumors of lung avoiding extensive morbid procedure like pneumonectomy without compromising the oncologic outcome. We describe a case of bronchial carcinoid treated by bronchoscopic intervention followed by wedge bronchoplasty. The importance of bronchoscopic debulking of the tumor for accurate assessment of its extent has been highlighted. A parenchyma preserving pulmonary resection can then be performed with bronchoplastic technique, thus avoiding pneumonectomy.
