PALAFOX, D. y PALAFOX, J.. In-bloc tumor resection and chest wall reconstruction. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2011, vol.37, n.3, pp.239-242. ISSN 1989-2055. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0376-78922011000300005.
Resection of a pulmonary or mediastinic neoplasm which simultaneously affects chest wall and reconstruction of the defect, are surgical proceedings that can be performed in the same surgical time. The objectives of reconstructing primarily the chest wall are to preserve the respiratory function and the thoracic wall integrity, therefore offering the patient appropriate respiratory mechanics, satisfactory aesthetic result and avoiding the needding for a second surgical intervention. There are several techniques and materials available for the surgery performance. We present the case of a patient who underwent successfully tumoral resection in-bloc and chest wall reconstruction.
