Abstract

We herein describe 3 cases of a carinal resection after induction bronchial arterial infusion (BAI) for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Case 1 was a 44-year-old man with T1N2M0 adenocarcinoma. After undergoing Nd-YAG laser treatment (5079 J) and BAI [cis -diamminedichloro platinum (CDDP) 100 mg/body], a right sleeve upper lobectomy with a carinal resection and reconstruction (Montage type) was performed. Case 2 was a 67-year-old man with T4N1M0 squamous cell carcinoma. After BAI (CDDP 120 mg/body), an operation (same as case 1) was performed. Case 3 was a 72-year-old man with T4N2M0 squamous cell carcinoma. After BAI (CDDP 120 mg/body), a right sleeve peumonectomy was performed. There was neither BAI-related intraoperative nor postoperative complications. BAI with CDDP was thus found to be a useful and effective therapeutic modality for locally advanced NSCLC invading the carina.
