摘要: Abstract Background . Whether video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) improves postoperative pulmonary function is still controversial. We compared after VATS lobectomy and standard lobectomy. Methods Eleven patients who had undergone 10 were studied. Arterial blood gas analyses performed on the 4th, 7th, 14th days. Pulmonary function, including forced vital capacity (FVC), expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV 1.0 ), peak flow rate (PFR) measured 7th days (early phase), approximately year (late phase). Results as assessed with arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO 2 ) ( p = 0.054), saturation (O 2SAT 0.063), FVC 0.10), FEV 0.08), was better than thoracotomy day. PFR significantly both 0.008 0.03, respectively). Conclusions advantages early function. conclude that a beneficial alternative to thoracotomy, especially for poor reserve.
