Treatment of concomitant severe coronary artery disease and lung cancer is a complicated issue. The present study describes a case of a 65-year-old man with coronary artery disease and primary lung cancer that was successfully treated with lung resection and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using Cypher stents. Prior to lung resection, the patient underwent a PCI for diffuse stenosis of the right coronary artery and the circumflex artery. Cypher stents were deployed for both lesions. Five days after stent implantation, a right lower lobectomy was performed successfully. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of lung resection and PCI using Cypher stents.
