The results of 68 combined operations for lung cancer and sarcoma are presented. Postoperative complications occurred in 42.7% and lethality rate was 16.2%. Total survival was 41% at 1 year, 20%--3 years and 9.9% at 5 years. The results of combined surgery proved worse than those of surgical treatment of lung cancer. However, tracheobronchial combined surgery produced better results than vascular-atrial or parietal-diaphragmatic types.
