T-Bar Utilization for Concomitant Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Operation and Left Upper Lobectomy

Management in patients with coexisting coronary artery disease and lung carcinoma is usually a two-stage operation, with the cardiac surgery procedure followed by pulmonary resection at a later time. Delayed tumor resection on the other hand may be detrimental. Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafti...
