[Immediate results of isolated chemoperfusion of the lung with melphalan and cisplatin in combination with metastasectomy in treatment for resectable metastatic lung lesions].
For treatment of metastatic lung lesions there was used the method of isolated chemoperfusion in combination with metastasectomy. The study included 74 patients (mean age 43 ± 13.4 years). There were performed 99 normothermic isolated chemoperfusions of the lung: with melphalan (39) and cisplatin (60). During surgery there were no lethality outcomes. In the immediate postoperative period it was recorded 1 (1.4%) death developed in 3 days after surgery. The cause of this death was postperfusion lung edema accompanied by increase of signs of respiratory insufficiency. There were following complications after isolated chemoperfusions of the lung: anemia--23 (23.1%), nausea--13 (13.1%), vomiting--5 (5.1%), atrial fibrillation--10 (10.1%), pneumonia-2 (2.0%), pulmonary infarction--2 (2.0%), chylothorax--1 (1.0%), pneumothorax--29 (29.3%), emphysema of soft tissues of the chest wall 73 (73.7% ). Thus isolated chemoperfusion of the lung with melphalan or cisplatin is a procedure reproducible and relatively safe.
