In a 65-year-old man who had been diagnosed as having lung cancer, invasive thymoma was pointed out on chest computed tomography. First, he underwent a right upper lobectomy. The pathological diagnosis was squamous cell carcinoma of the lung. After a month of the first operation, he underwent a thymothymectomy including left diaphragmatic nerve resection. Nearly 3 years after the second operation, he was urgently admitted to our hospital because of respiratory failure. A diagnosis of respiratory muscle failure due to diaphragmatic paralysis was made. He received mechanical ventilation followed by daily training for respiration. Mechanical ventilation was needed only at night. Thus, we decided that home mechanical ventilation (HMV) was possible. His present condition has been steady using HMV at home. HMV is effective for achieving a better quality of life.
