摘要: Resection results from 417 consecutive patients operated on between January 1, 1964, and December 30, 1969, were analyzed in March, 1976. This period was chosen to allow a five-year follow-up. The of resection 56 with invaded mediastinal nodes are reported. Mediastinoscopy assess resectability not used for any the patients. Our low incidence node invasion (56 out 417, or 13.4%), rate 97.4%, hospital mortality 2.8% advanced carcinoma suggest that routine mediastinoscopy prior is necessary. Traditional methods preoperative assessment use, when indicated, extended result worthwhile salvage nodes.
