Physiologic evaluation of the patient with lung cancer being considered for resectional surgery: Diagnosis and management of lung cancer, 3rd ed: American College of Chest Physicians evidence-based clinical practice guidelines.

TLDR
A careful preoperative physiologic assessment is useful for identifying those patients at increased risk with standard lung cancer resection and for enabling an informed decision by the patient about the appropriate therapeutic approach to treating his or her lung cancer.

Chirurgie von primären Lungentumoren bei alten Patienten

E. Palade, +1 more
TL;DR: Durch eine umfassende Risikostratifizierung (Prufung der kardio-pulmonalen Funktion), eine perioperative pulmonale Rehabilitation and eine schonende Operationstechnik (parenchymsparende, minimal-invasive Technik) konnen vergleichbare Ergebnisse wie bei jungeren Patienten erreicht werden.

[Physical activity and lung cancer: A synthesis of the literature].

TL;DR: In this paper , a review of the literature collates the evidence and current data relating to physical activity (PA) carried out at different periods of treatment for lung cancer, and the efficacy of multimodal programs is demonstrated regarding symptoms, exercise capacity, functional capacity, postoperative complications, length of hospital stay and quality of life.

Contralateral Pneumonectomy 27 Years After Right Single-Lung Transplantation for Emphysema: A Case Report

TL;DR: After single-lung transplantation in COPD patients, native lung hyperinflation is a well-described rare complication and lung volume reduction including pneumonectomy can be considered a valuable treatment option.

Derivation and Prospective Validation of a Simple Index for Prediction of Cardiac Risk of Major Noncardiac Surgery

TL;DR: In stable patients undergoing nonurgent major noncardiac surgery, this index can identify patients at higher risk for complications and may be useful for identification of candidates for further risk stratification with noninvasive technologies or other management strategies.

Effects of extended-release metoprolol succinate in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery (POISE trial): a randomised controlled trial.

TL;DR: The results highlight the risk in assuming a perioperative beta-blocker regimen has benefit without substantial harm, and the importance and need for large randomised trials in theperioperative setting.
