A left lower lobectomy was performed, and sectioning of the lung demonstrated a 1.3-cm firm, tan-pink mass which was representatively frozen. |
Finally, 16 of these patients had surgery, undergoing a lobectomy, tumor removal, or corpus callosotomy to remove or control the seizure focus. |
The patient was subsequently referred to our hospital, where he underwent thoracotomy with left upper lobectomy and partial pericardiectomy. |
On day 3, right temporal lobectomy was performed. |
Seven days after the bronchoscopy the patient went to the operating room for a right lower lobe lobectomy and wedge biopsy of the right middle lung. |
Macroscopically, the largest mass in the lobectomy specimen was firm and white with cystic degeneration and stippling calcification. |
