Objective Primary tracheobronchial tumors (PTTs) are rare heterogeneous lesions arising from any part of the tracheobronchial tree. Nonspecific symptoms may lead to delayed diagnosis that requires more aggressive surgical treatment. An analysis of cases collected by the International Network of Pediatric Airway Team was undertaken to ensure proper insight into the behavior and management of PTTs. Methods Patients <18 years of age with a histological confirmation of PTT diagnosed from 2000 to 2015 were included in this multicenter international retrospective study. Medical records, treatment modalities, and outcomes were analyzed. The patient presentation, tumor management, and clinical course were compared between malignant and benign histotypes. Clinical and surgical variables that might influence event‐free survival were considered. Results Among the 78 children identified, PTTs were more likely to be malignant than benign; bronchial carcinoid tumor (n = 31; 40%) was the most common histological subtype, followed by inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (n = 19; 25%) and mucoepidermoid carcinoma (n = 15; 19%). Regarding symptoms at presentation, wheezing (P = 0.001) and dyspnea (P = 0.03) were more often associated with benign growth, whereas hemoptysis was more frequently associated with malignancy (P = 0.042). Factors that significantly worsened event‐free survival were age at diagnosis earlier than 112 months (P = 0.0035) and duration of symptoms lasting more than 2 months (P = 0.0029). Conclusion The results of this international study provide important information regarding the clinical presentation, diagnostic workup, and treatment of PTTs in children, casting new light on the biological behavior of PTTs to ensure appropriate treatments.

“…With the exception of one patient (6.6%) who experienced a prolonged air leak (14 days after surgery), the postoperative course was uneventful in all cases, and discharge from the hospital occurred within 5-7 days of the operation Lobectomy and bilobectomy: 217 cases Indications for VATS lobectomy [74,75] were as follows: stage I non-small-cell lung cancers, carcinoids, metastases, and benign lesions not removable by lesser resections. On the left side 31 upper lobectomies and 58 lower lobectomies were performed, and on the right side, 43 upper, 15 middle, 66 lower lobectomies, and 4 bilobectomies were performed.…”

The analysis of the literature and our experience show that VATS is a reliable approach to the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary diseases with low complication rate. To further reduce intraoperative and postoperative morbidity, however, it is necessary to select the patients carefully, to adhere strictly to oncological surgical principles, and to adopt a meticulous technique. Although conversion to open surgery represents failure of VATS, it is mandatory when the procedure is not completely safe.

“…For this purpose, wedge resection, segmentectomy, bronchotomy, mass extirpation or sleeve resection can be used as technique. Videothoracoscopic surgery that a minimally invasive method,may be an alternative method for selected cases accompined by peripheral typical carsinoid [5,6]. Endobronchial treatment methods can be used in patients that surgical therapy is contraindicated.…”

Olgumuzda sol akciğer alt lob üst lob ayırım karinasında tipik karsinoid tümör saptandı. Hastaya pnömonektomi yerine lober karina rezeksiyonu ve rekostrüksiyonu yapıldı. Akciğer parankimini korumak için uygun vakalarda sleeve rezeksiyonlar pnömonektomiye tercih edildi. Teknik güçlüğüne rağmen uygun vakalarda başarıyla uygulanabilen lober karina rezeksiyonu, bir sleeve rezeksiyon varyantı olarak değerlendirilmelidir.

Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) lobectomy for typical bronchopulmonary carcinoid tumors

Abstract: VATS lobectomy in the treatment of selected typical carcinoids, both central and peripheral, seems to yield favorable results and is therefore preferable to thoracotomy since it is less invasive.
