Study on the late effect of pneumonectomy on right heart pressures using Doppler echocardiography

Abstract

Pneumonectomy is related with postoperative elevation of PASP and RV dilatation, especially right pneumonectomy. Significant percent FVC reduction, increased age and low pO2 values are the main responsible factors for elevation of the 6-month postoperative PASP values.
