Abstract
- Patients with concomitant surgical diseases of the heart and lungs are a therapeutic challenge to cardiothoracic surgeons. A 59-year-old woman underwent right middle lobectomy for lung cancer and redo double valve replacement with tricuspid annuloplasty simultaneously. Concomitant operation is a safe procedure and might allow prompt correction of both conditions, thereby sparing the patient a second major thoracic procedure with its attendant risks.
