| On the left there was an obstructing lesion noted at the orifice of the left upper lobe bronchus. |
| The left main bronchus was exposed at the posterior mediastinum and separated from connective tissue. |
| The tumors located centrally were polypoid, protruding into the lumen of the bronchus and narrowing the lumen. |
| Bronchoscopy revealed a normal distal trachea, carina and right mainstem bronchus. |
| We routinely use a 4.8-mm stapling device to close the main bronchus after pneumonectomy. |
| His disease was more widespread with most of his airway affected from the base of the epiglottis to the entrance of the right main bronchus. |
