Resumen
MEDEROS CURBELO, Orestes N et al. Variación del volumen espiratorio forzado y presión de oxígeno en reducción del volumen pulmonar en bullas gigantes unilaterales. Rev Cubana Cir [online]. 2002, vol.41, n.3, pp.152-155. ISSN 0034-7493.
15 patients with giant emphysematous bullas treated by ruled lobectomy at Comandante Manuel Fajardo Teaching Hospital, from 1995 to 2000, were presented. All these patients were approached by axillary incisions. 100 % were males who smoked 2 packages of cigarettes daily. Surgical mortality was 6.6 % due to the fact that one of the patients died from pulmonary trombolism. In the other 14 patients the functional respiratory tests were made and it was observed a change of the forced expiratory volume in the reduction of the residual volume. In the arterial gasometry, the oxygen pressure (02P) increased in all patients, reaching values between 80 and 85, which allowed them to incorporate to their active working life
