Abstract

Aim-Background Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer death in both men and women in our country. It has been estimated that there will be 7,000 lung cancer deaths every year in Greece. However, many patients with bronchogenic carcinoma also have coexistent obstructive lung disease. In these patients, preoperative prediction of functional status after lung resection is mandatory. The aim of our study was to determine the effect of lobectomy on postoperative spirometric lung function.
