He underwent a left lower lobectomy for the 30 mm mass posteriorly within the apical segment left lower lobe. His operation was uncomplicated however he developed a post operative pneumonia noted on CXR. He developed a DVT postoperatively which coincided with bilateral pulmonary emboli and systemic dissemination of thrombi.
