Postpneumonectomy syndrome reflects extrinsic compression of the distal trachea and main stem bronchus due to shifting of
the mediastinum and hyperinflation of the remaining lung. The syndrome is characterized by development of progressive
dyspnea, cough, inspiratory stridor, and recurrent pneumonia in patients at least 6 months after surgery. We report a case of
late onset dysphagia secondary to post-pneumonectomy syndrome, nine years after right pneumonectomy. It is a rare
complication and there are only two similar reports in the literature. (Tanaffos 2008; 7(2): 71-74)
