Bronchovascular reconstructive procedures employed in order to avoid
pneumonectomy (PN) in patients functionally unsuitable have provided, over time,
excellent results, similar or even better than those obtained by PN. In recent
years, new successful techniques have been developed that pertain in particular
the prevention of major complications and the reconstruction of the pulmonary
artery (PA). Encouraging data from increasing number of published experiences
support the choice of parenchymal sparing procedures for lung cancer also in
patients with good functional reserve. This is even more true if considering
trials published in the last 10 years, thus indicating that improved outcome can
be achieved with increased experience in reconstructive techniques and
perioperative management. This article discusses the main technical aspects and
results of literature.
