[Pulmonary artery pressure in the pathophysiology of lung-resections therapy. Part III: pre- and postoperative investigations (author's transl)].
50 patients were investigated by right heart catheterization to determine the range of blood pressure values in lung circulation after lung resection. A comparison between pre- and postoperative blood pressure values was conducted in 29 patients and a significant increase was found. In some patients the blood pressure values after pulmonary lobectomy rose to 50% and after pneumonectomy to 100% above the preoperative values. Changes of the investigated aterial pressure differences proved to be not statistically significant.
