The patients with stage III-A non-small-cell-lung primary cancer that were operated on at the General Surgery Service of "Hermanos Ameijeiras" Clinical and Surgical Hospital from January, 1995, to January, 2000, were studied aimed at evaluating the results of the surgical treatment. Descriptive techniques and hypothesis testing were used for this analysis. The sample consisted of 44 patients: 18 women and 26 men. 90.1 % were over 50. The axilovertical incision was made in 81.8 %. The neoplasia was located in the right lung in 59.1 %, whereas 47.7 % were located in the center. Pneumonectomy was performed in 50 %. There was 13.6 % of surgical accidents. Respiratory complications prevailed with 20.4 %. A postoperative mortality of 18.9 % was observed. There was a significant statistical relation (p< 0.05) between mortality from complications and smoking. The pre-, trans- and postoperative respiratory physiotherapy should be strengthened
