RESUMO
Bronchoplastic operations are analysed in 114 patients: 76 (66.67%) with bronchial carcinoma, 33 (28.94%) bronchial adenoma, 4 (3.51%) bronchial rupture or stenosis and bronchial hondroma in one case. Sleeve resection was done in 99 (86.84%) and other kind of bronchoplastic operations in 15 (13.16%). Preoperative diagnostic procedures were focused on: clinical course and symptomatology, exact location of bronchial lesion, type of tumor, mediastinal lymph nodes, bronchial three distal from the lesion and respiratory lung tests. Intraoperatively attention was toward to the evidence of peribronchial growth of tumor, mediastinal lymph nodes and lung tissue. Early postoperative course was without complications in 85 (75.89%), with complications in 26 (23.21%) but two patients died. Incomplete reexpansion or athelectasis of the entire lung or lobe but easily treated, were the commonest complications. There was no evidence of bronchial fistula or bronchial sutura at the level of submucosal growth of tumor. In certain indications bronchoplastic operations are good operative choice for surgical treatment of bronchial tumors and traumatic bronchial rupture or its sequelas-stenosis. For malignant tumors, late results, are, after this kind of operations, equivalent to those achieved after classic resections and they do not depend of the kind of surgical procedures but correlate to the nature of the tumor. For benign and slowly growing malignant tumors late results after these operations are excellent.

Correctly performed antituberculous chemotherapy, together with the early diagnostics of tuberculosis, significantly lowered the need for surgery. Surgery is limited to patients with poor or no response to chemotherapy. In the period between 1983-1992 212 tuberculous patients were operated in the Clinic for Thoracic surgery, the Institute for the Pulmonary Disease the operated patients had the following form of the disease: primary tuberculosis in 4 patients (1.87%), 104 patients (49.06%) had the postprimary form of the disease, 67 patients (31.60%) had tuberculoma (causative lesion) cavernous tuberculosis existed in 33 patients (15.57%), while only 4 patients (1.87%) had diffuse pulmonary lesion. Diagnosis of post-tuberculous syndrome was made in 68 patients (32.08%). Secondary aspergylloma existed in 36 patients while the frequency of bronchial stenosis and bronchiectasis was the same -m 31 patients (16.98% and 14.63% respectively). One patient had broncho-oesophageal fistula. Tuberculous empiema, complicating the disease, existed in 36 patients (16.98%). Comparing the two 5-years periods, (1983-87 and 1988 to 1992) the authors conclude that the number of operations for tuberculosis is decreasing. Treatment was successful in all patients except in a patient with a broncho-esophageal fistula, who died postoperatively slow lung reexpansion existed in 5 patients, and in two cases partial upper thoracoplasty had to be done in order to solve the complication of the initial treatment. In all cases postoperative antituberculous chemotherapy was performed taking in consideration the problem of possible drug-resistance. There were no recurrences.

The authors present 100 patients operate for diseases of the trachea during a period ranging from 1972-1991. Stricture of the trachea was observed in 75% of pts. and tumours in the remaining 25%. Stricture resulting from tracheostomy was the most frequent. The majority of patients underwent end-to-end anastomosis. A Nevill prosthesis was implanted in 5 patients. The results were good in 93.34% of pts. The mortality was 6.6%. The most frequent operation for malignant tumours was resection of the trachea and end-to-end anastomosis. The length of the respected segment ranged from 3-6 cm. There was no mortality. The authors conclude that adequate preoperative diagnostic procedures unable good assessment of a lesions and a well planed operation with good results and no mortality.
