Background According to practice guidelines, patients with clinical stage T1–2 node-negative small-cell lung cancer are candidates for surgical resection. However, the role of pneumonectomy in small-cell lung cancer patients is not well understood.

Abstract:
Pneumonectomy is an entire lung removal and is indicated for both malignant and benign diseases. Due to its invasiveness and postoperative complications, pneumonectomy is still associated with high mortality and morbidity. Appropriate postoperative management is crucial in pneumonectomy patients to improve quality of life and overall survival rates. Diverse drug regimens are under development to be used in adjuvant chemotherapy or to improve respiratory health after a pneumonectomy. The most common causes for a pneumonectomy are non-small cell lung cancer, malignant pleural mesothelioma, and t

Abstract Background Pneumonectomy in lung cancer treatment is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Its use is reserved only for patients in whom a complete oncological resection by (sleeve) lobectomy is not possible. It is unclear whether a patients’ risk of receiving a pneumonectomy is equally distributed. This study examined between-hospital variation of pneumonectomy use for primary lung cancer in the Netherlands.

Background: Pneumonectomy can be used to manage destroyed lung; however, it is associated with a high risk of complications. This study analyzed the outcomes of pneumonectomy in patients with destroyed lungs.
 Methods: The study included 28 patients who had pneumonectomy for benign lung diseases from January 2011 to December 2017. Descriptive analysis was used to present patients' demographics, surgical details, and postoperative outcomes. Intraoperative blood loss was compared in tuberculous vs. non-tuberculous patients and those who had extrapleural vs. intrapleural pneumonectomy.

Abstract:
Pulmonary arterial pressure is higher during exercise after pneumonectomy than before. Several factors may contribute to the elevation, e.g., loss of vascular bed, overinflation of the remaining lung, and active pulmonary vasoconstriction. We measured hemodynamic changes during graded exercise in conditioned foxhounds and compared pulmonary pressure-flow relationships before and after left pneumonectomy. Pulmonary arterial pressure-flow relationship in the remaining lung is not altered by pneumonectomy, suggesting that the increase in pulmonary vascular resistance post-pneumonectomy is largely

Although the left lung constitutes 42% of the total by weight and volume in dogs, carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (DL) after left pneumonectomy in adults falls less than 30% at rest, indicating a significant increase of DL in the remaining lung. DL normally increases during exercise, presumably by recruitment of alveolar capillaries and surface area as lung volume (Vs) and pulmonary blood flow (Qc) increase.

Background: Pulmonary circulation typically shows flow divided between the right and left lungs, with a marked predominance of the right lung. Pneumonectomy reduces pulmonary circulation by ~50%, irreversibly changing the pulmonary perfusion characteristics.

Abstract:
Pneumonectomy approximately halves the available pulmonary vascular bed. It is unknown whether the remaining lung has sufficient vascular reserve to cope with increased blood flow under stressful conditions without demonstrating abnormal pulmonary hemodynamics. To investigate this question, unanesthetized ewes with vascular catheters had hemodynamics assessed before and after a left pneumonectomy. Subsequently, on different days, the sheep were exercised on a treadmill under normoxic and hypobaric hypoxic (430 mmHg) (1 mmHg = 133.3 Pa) conditions. Pneumonectomy itself increased mean pulmonary
