A 48-year-old woman with extensive clarithromycin-resistant Mycobacterium avium complex pulmonary disease (MAC-PD) was successfully treated by left lower lobectomy and lingulectomy following combination treatment of intravenous/inhaled amikacin plus bronchial occlusion by Endobronchial Watanabe Spigots (EWSs). A left pneumonectomy was initially indicated for removing all the lesions, but the procedure would have been barely tolerated by the patient. However, her preoperative combination treatment sufficiently reduced the lesions requiring resection to allow surgical preservation of the left upper division. This novel approach might be promising for patients with Mycobacterium avium complex lung disease whose pulmonary reserve will not allow an extensive parenchymal resection.
