  • Title: [Efficiency after radical surgery for bronchectasis (author's transl)].
    Author: Poppe IR, Mirin JN.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1978; 103(16):1067-71. PubMed ID: 706872.
    Abstract:
    The maximally possible efficiency as well as the O2-supply (VO2 max) necessary for this purpose comes in patients with resection of 1 to 5 segments to 25 to 30% less than in healthy persons. The loss of 6 to 10 segments lowers the capacity of compensation by 40%. Persisting bronchitis decreases this mechanism for 10 to 12% more.
