Abstract:
6,212 lung cancer patients have been examined and treated. The data on surgical and combined treatment of 2,702 patients have been analyzed. Postoperative complication incidence has dropped to 5.4% in recent years. End results have improved due to use of organ-saving, reconstructive and plastic procedures for the bronchi and trachea in conjunction with radiotherapy.
