Risk factors for impaired lung function after pulmonary metastasectomy: a prospective observational study of 117 cases.
OBJECTIVES The prediction of postoperative preserved pulmonary function is essential for ascertaining the functional operability of pulmonary metastasectomy candidates. Formulae to predict pulmonary function after metastasectomy have not yet been described. This study was undertaken to provide data about the functional loss after a pulmonary metastasectomy, which often includes non-anatomical r...
متن کاملShort- and Mid-Term Changes in Lung Function after Bilateral Pulmonary Metastasectomy.
INTRODUCTION The resection of pulmonary metastases is associated with a loss of lung function. The amount of functional impairment after bilateral metastasectomy remains unclear. Because only around 35% of those patients may expect long-term survival, it is important to preserve enough pulmonary function for an adequate quality of life. This analysis of 31 bilaterally operated patients was perf...
متن کاملPulmonary Function after Adenotonsillectomy
Introduction Adenotonsillar hypertrophy is a common disorder among children which, without proper treatment, may lead to considerable problems. Although the consequences of this disorder have been studied in other articles, we decided to evaluate the changes in pulmonary function tests in these children after adenotonsillectomy, and the correlation between clinical and spirometric parameters. ...
متن کاملLung Metastasectomy for Pulmonary Metastatic Breast Carcinoma.
Breast carcinoma with pulmonary metastasis can be treated locally or systemically. Following primary tumour resection patients with isolated, completely resectable pulmonary nodules and definite functional operability can be offered lung metastasis resection. Following metastasectomy a median survival of 32 to 96.6 months can be achieved with corresponding five-year survival rates between 30.8 ...
متن کاملPrognostic factors after pulmonary metastasectomy of colorectal cancers: influence of liver metastasis
BACKGROUND Our objective was to evaluate the influence of liver metastasis on survival after pulmonary metastasectomy in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed a total of 524 patients and were classified into two groups based on the presence of liver metastasis. Group HM + PM (n = 106) included patients who previously received a hepatic metastasectomy and t...
