A total of 197 consecutive patients undergoing pneumonectomy at the M.D.
Anderson Cancer Center from 1982 to 1987 were reviewed. Sixty-five
variables were analyzed for the predictive value for perioperative risk.
The operative mortality rate was 7% (14/197). Patients having a right
pneumonectomy (n = 95) had a higher operative mortality rate (12%) than
patients having a left pneumonectomy (1%, p less than 0.05). The extent of
resection correlated with the operative mortality rate (chest wall
resection or extrapleural pneumonectomy, n = 39, 15%; versus simple or
intrapericardial pneumonectomy, n = 158, 5%; p less than 0.05). Patients
whose predicted postoperative pulmonary function, by spirometry and xenon
133 regional pulmonary function studies, was a forced expiratory volume in
1 second greater than 1.65 L, forced expiratory volume in 1 second greater
than 58% of the preoperative value, forced vital capacity greater than 2.5
L, or forced vital capacity greater than 60% of the preoperative value had
a lower operative mortality rate (p less than 0.05). Atrial arrhythmia was
the most common postoperative complication (23%). Xenon 133 regional
pulmonary function studies are useful in predicting the risks of
pneumonectomy.
