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.About:

Special Treatment Issues in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer: Diagnosis and Management of Lung Cancer, 3rd ed: American College of Chest Physicians Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guidelines
TL;DR: This guideline updates the second edition and addresses patients with particular forms of non-small cell lung cancer that require special considerations, including Pancoast tumors, T4 N0,1 M0 tumors, additional nodules in the same lobe, ipsilateral different lobe, synchronous and metachronous second primary lung cancers, solitary brain and adrenal metastases, and chest wall involvement.

TL;DR: The updated evidence base is used to provide recommendations where the evidence allows, and statements based on experience and expert consensus where it does not, and to optimize the approach to low‐dose CT screening.

Preoperative Assessment as a Predictor of Mortality and Morbidity After Lung Resection
James Markos,Brian P. Mullan,David R. Hillman,Arthur W. Musk,Vince F. Antico,Frederic T. Lovegrove,Martin Carter,Kevin E. Finucane +7 more
TL;DR: Preoperative pulmonary scintigraphy was used to calculate the contribution to overall function by the affected lung or lobe and to predict postoperative lung function, and predicted postoperative FEV1 (FEV1-ppo), diffusing capacity (DLCO) and exercise-induced arterial O2 desaturation (delta SaO2) were predictive of postoperative complications including death and respiratory failure.

Combined operations for lung volume reduction surgery and lung cancer
TL;DR: Fifty-three lung masses were found in 51 (16%) of 325 patients who underwent lung volume reduction surgery, which included 11 non-small cell lung cancers and 42 benign lung masses.

Exercise capacity and extent of resection as predictors of surgical risk in lung cancer
Martin Brutsche,Anastase Spiliopoulos,Chris T. Bolliger,Marc Licker,Jean-Georges Frey,Jean-Marie Tschopp +5 more
TL;DR: Maximal oxygen uptake and the estimated extent of lung tissue resection are independent predictors of postoperative complications and these simple parameters should be integrated into the preoperative decision analysis for operability in patients undergoing lung resection for lung cancer.

Pulmonary Function Tests Do Not Predict Pulmonary Complications After Thoracoscopic Lobectomy
Mark F. Berry,Nestor Villamizar-Ortiz,Betty C. Tong,William R. Burfeind,David H. Harpole,Thomas A. D'Amico,Mark W. Onaitis +6 more
TL;DR: In patients with impaired pulmonary function, preoperative pulmonary function tests are predictors of pulmonary complications when lobectomy for lung cancer is performed throughThoracotomy but not through thoracoscopy.

TL;DR: The 5-year survival, particularly in patients with stage Ia tumors with favorable ASA and FEV, supports the notion that health status and tumor stage outweigh chronologic age in determining surgical candidates.

Recovery and limitation of exercise capacity after lung resection for lung cancer.
TL;DR: There are differences between lobectomy and pneumonectomy for lung cancer in terms of recovery and limitation of exercise capacity, and postoperatively, maximal minute ventilation (VEmax), the maximal heart rate percentage, and maximal O2 pulse during the exercise test significantly decreased.
