“…Cut-off values of ventilatory parameters that are used in treatment planning particularly forthe safe resection have been changed, along with improvement of postoperative lung function prediction and operative risk assessment methods [1][2][3]. In addition, as it was convincingly demonstrated that age itself is not a contraindication for surgery, there is increasing evidence of safe surgical treatment in septuagenarians and even in octogenarians [4,5]. …”

“…76 yaş üstü hastalarla daha genç hastaları karşılaştırdıkları çalışmalarında sınırlı rezeksiyon uygulanan yaşlı hastaların lobektomi uygulananlara göre erken dönemde daha iyi prognoza sahip olduğunu tespit etti. Bu yüzden ileri yaş hastalarda lobektomi ve bilobektominin fazla invaziv olduğunu ve sınırlı bir rezeksiyonun daha yararlı olabileceğini iddia ettiler [21]. Akciğer kanseri çalışma grubunun 1995'te yayınladığı raporda ise sınırlı rezeksiyonun perioperatif mortalite ve morbiditede azalma ve postoperatif pulmoner fonksiyonlarda düzelme ile sonuçlanmadığı belirtildi [43].…”
