[The postoperative course in 82 cases of bronchiectasis (author's transl)].
After a description of their clinical and radiological characteristics, the authors analyse the postoperative course in 82 cases of bronchiectasis. Whilst the severity of postoperative complications tends to decrease, a large number remains. Long term results were good in 82% of cases but were related to the age of the patients, and the extent of the lesions and the excision. As a result, success is dependent upon the decision concerning the indication for surgery, but also the quality of postoperative surveillance which must be rigorous.
