| Abstract: | A 59-year-old female with multiple lung cancer, located in left upper lobe and in right upper lobe received synchronous bilateral thoracotomy. The patient underwent left upper division segmentectomy and right S3 segmentectomy. Histological examination showed large cell carcinoma in the left side and small cell carcinoma in the right side. The patient died 5 years and 3 months after operation. If general condition and pulmonary function permit, bilateral thoracotomy for multiple lung cancer is recommended. |
