Abstract

A 75-year-old male patient with a history of previous right lung transplant presented with left upper lobe squamous cell carcinoma. Endobronchial ultrasound and positron emission tomography displayed no mediastinal lymphadenopathy. A ventilation-perfusion scan displayed minimal perfusion to the native lung. Left robot-assisted lysis of adhesions, decortication, left upper lobectomy, and mediastinal lymphadenectomy were performed. The patient tolerated the procedure well. Final pathology displayed pT2a, n0, m0. Lobectomy is a safe and efficient treatment of native lung malignancy in the setting of previous lung transplant with minimally functioning native lung.
