TL;DR: Data show that patients without apparent infection or inflammation, who had elevated CRP-values preoperatively, face an increased risk of septic complications after extracorporeal circulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Markers of Activated Hemostasis and Fibrinolysis in Patients with Pulmonary Malignancies: Comparison of Plasma Levels in Central Venous and Pulmonary Venous Blood
TL;DR: It is indicated that malignant lung tumors directly contribute to the activation of hemostasis and fibrinolysis in these clinical settings.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pectoral muscle flaps in the treatment of bronchial stump fistula following pneumonectomy.
