Isolated resection of the right main bronchus with the formation of polybronchial anastomosis in typical central carcinoid

The paper considers the state-of-the-art of the problem of lung carcinoids. Particular emphasis is laid on the treatment of patients with typical carcinoid tumors. Most patients undergo organ-saving bronchoplastic procedures, including isolated bronchial resection with interbronchial anastomosis and preservation of the whole lung parenchyma. The paper describes a case of the rare operation to make polybronchial anastomosis.
