[Surgical treatment to the lung cancer in a patient receiving hemodialysis].

We performed right lower lobectomy for lung cancer in a 62-year-old man who had been under hemodialysis for 4 years. During the operation, hyperkalemia occurred and was treated by GI therapy (continuous intravenous infusion of glucose + insulin). On the 3rd postoperative day, CVP was increased and hypotension occurred during hemodialysis. It was considered that heart failure had developed. Attention to the possibility of heart failure is important in the postoperative management of patient on chronic hemodialysis who require lung resection. He was discharged without bleeding of infection. There have been few reports on operations for lung cancer in such patients, so our experience is significant.
