[Simultaneous operation for Ebstein's anomaly and lung cancer]

The number of patients with coexisting cardiac disease and lung cancer have been increasing. The issue of performing simultaneous pulmonary resection and cardiac surgery remains controversial. We report a patient who underwent simultaneous surgery for Ebstein's anomaly and lung cancer with a good outcome. The tricuspid valve replacement with bioprothesis and the closure of a foramen ovale for Ebstein's anomaly was 1st performed under cardiopulmonary bypass. The resection of the right upper pulmonary lobe and mediastinal lymph nodes followed. The postoperative course was uneventful.
