[Modern surgical staging of lung cancer].

The estimation of the extension of a lung cancer is actually made according to the rules of TNM system. On the basis of the reports of 100 patients who underwent thoracotomy and were staged according to this system after hystological examination of resected specimen (pTNM), the authors consider some not yet clear aspects of this staging. In particular they underline the wide difference between clinical and post-histological staging; the high rate of nodal involvement, if the surgeon always perform a radical excision of the lymph nodes; the further need of accuracy for the data N2 and T3; the role of the anatomo-pathologist for the correct staging pTNM.

[Typical, atypical and malignant bronchial carcinoid].

A series of 54 bronchial carcinoids operated in the course of 12 yr is presented. There were three histological types: typical, atypical and malignant. A parallel was also apparent between histological appearance and clinical pattern. Correct prognosis, however, demands the examination of other parameters, such the tendency of the neoplasia to infiltrate, and the presence of metastatic lymph nodes.

[Surgical treatment of post-traumatic mobile costal flaps].

Twelve cases of surgical management of post-traumatic mobile costal flap are reported. An account is given of the indications for surgery and the various types of costal immobilisation suitable for the anatomical features of the flap. The technique is described in detail and the results are discussed.

[A case of recurrent hemoperitoneum caused by hepatocarcinoma].

A case of recurring haemoperitoneum caused by liver cancer is presented. This neoplasia, rare itself in Italy, may have a variety of clinical pictures. Recurring haemoperitoneum is quite exceptional and mistaken diagnosis and aetiopathogenetic interpretation are the likely results. The symptomatology is illustrated and the problem of diagnosis is discussed.

Sleeve lobectomy in the treatment of bronchogenic carcinoma.

From 1980 to 1985, 44 sleeve lobectomies were carried out in patients with bronchial cancer. Sixteen patients received preoperative radiotherapy. Perioperative mortality was 6.8%. There were seven anastomotic complications (three fistulae and four stenoses) and two recurrences at the anastomosis. Overall actuarial survival was 45% at four years. These results seem to suggest that sleeve lobectomy should be considered an elective rather than a compromise procedure and a viable alternative to pneumonectomy. Preoperative radiotherapy neither increases complications nor has a negative effect on outcome. It contributes towards reducing local recurrences and maximizes tissue salvage. Long-term survival is related to stage or histology, factors generally governing the survival of lung cancer operated patients, although the TNM classification is ill-suited to identifying tumors which can be resected by a sleeve lobectomy.
