Summary

Malignant tumours, which are invading extrapulmonary structures, are in many cases resectable “in block”. These “extended lung resections” target not only the invasion of cave vein, pericardium, mediastinal nerves, atrium, diaphragm, thoracic wall, aorta and vertebral column, but also central extrapulmonary structures of the lung (main bronchus, trachea, pulmonary trunk). These could spare healthy lung tissue due to broncho-, angioplastic techniques, or make pneumonectomy possible. In comparison with alternative therapy, five year survival of patients with advanced stage tumours is higher; however, morbidity and mortality rates are also increased.

Zusammenfassung

Maligne Lungentumoren, die auf extrapulmonale Strukturen übergreifen, sind in vielen Fällen resektabel. Diese „erweiterten Lungenresektionen“ betreffen per definitionem nicht nur Invasionen von V. cava, Perikard, Nerven im Mediastinum, Herzvorhof, Brustwand, Zwerchfell, Aorta und Wirbelsäure, sondern auch zentrale extrapulmonale Strukturen der Lunge (Hauptbronchus, Trachea, Pulmonalarterienstamm). Diese können mittels broncho- und angioplastischer Techniken gesundes Lungengewebe erhalten, bzw. eine Pneumonektomie überhaupt möglich machen. Im Vergleich mit den alternativen Therapien erhöhen sich in diesen hohen Tumorstadien die 5-Jahres-Überlebensquoten der Patienten, allerdings auch Morbidität und Letalität.
