    Summary

    Surgical treatment for bronchial adenomata, including local excision and lobectomy, showed no recurrence in 14 patients over 25 years. These findings support conservative surgical management for carcinoid tumors.

    Area of Science:

    • Thoracic surgery
    • Surgical oncology
    • Pulmonary medicine

    Background:

    • Bronchial adenomata are rare tumors of the lung.
    • Carcinoid tumors represent the majority of bronchial adenomata.
    • Optimal surgical management requires long-term outcome data.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the long-term efficacy of surgical interventions for bronchial adenomata.
    • To assess recurrence rates and patient outcomes following various surgical techniques.
    • To provide evidence supporting a specific surgical approach for carcinoid tumors.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 15 patients with bronchial adenomata undergoing surgical treatment.
    • Follow-up periods ranging from 1 to 25 years.
    • Surgical procedures included bronchotomy with local excision, segmental resection, lobectomy, and pneumonectomy.

    Main Results:

    • 14 out of 15 patients remained symptom-free with normal chest radiographs post-surgery.
    • No cases of tumor recurrence were observed in the follow-up period.
    • One patient died post-lobectomy due to an unrelated gastric hemorrhage.

    Conclusions:

    • A conservative surgical approach, such as local excision or lobectomy, is effective for bronchial adenomata diagnosed as carcinoid tumors.
    • Surgical treatment yields excellent long-term outcomes with no recurrence.
    • Minimally invasive techniques are favored when a definitive diagnosis of carcinoid tumor is established.
