title: [Functional changes after segmental and lobar resections of the lungs at remote periods of observation].
abstract: Clinico-roentgenological and functional studies were carried out in 78 patients 2--12 years following segmental (42 patients) and lobar (3) pneumonectomies for tuberculosis. An analysis of the data obtained indicated that partial pneumonectomies within the boundaries of 1-5 segments per se fail to produce significant disorders in the ventilatory and gas metabolism function of the lung. 2-12 years after the operation the patients show considerable ventilatory reserves. Significant respiratory disorders are observed only in patients with postoperative complications and pathological changes in the lung, pleura and bronchi conditioned by tuberculosis and non-specific lung pathology.
