[Left Upper Lobectomy Followed by Left Lower Pulmonary Vein Reconstruction after Miscutting the Common Trunk of the Left Pulmonary Veins].

A 65-year-old woman was diagnosed with lung cancer on the left upper lobe. During thoracoscopic left upper lobectomy, the common trunk of pulmonary vein was mistaken for the left upper pulmonary vein and divided incorrectly. Instead of left pneumonectomy, we successfully performed pulmonary vein reconstruction. As a result of anticoagulant therapy for 1 month, postoperative course was uneventful.
