We describe a case of left pneumothorax-induced left postpneumonectomy syndrome in the absence of anatomical anomalies developing at 10 years after the operation. We placed an endobronchial stent into the right truncus intermidius and the procedure resulted in recovery of the syndrome. We consider endobronchial stent placement as an effective treatment for postpneumonectomy syndrome, especially when surgical management is not feasible.
我们描述了一例在手术后10年出现左气胸诱发的左肺切除术后综合征且无解剖学异常的病例。我们将一个支气管内支架置入右中间干，该操作使综合征得到缓解。我们认为支气管内支架置入是治疗肺切除术后综合征的一种有效方法，尤其是在手术治疗不可行时。
