Abstract
Recent studies report the immunomodulatory lung-protective role of halogenated anaesthetics
during lung resection surgery (LRS) but have not investigated differences in clinical
postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs). The main goal of the present study was
to compare the effect of sevoflurane and propofol on the incidence of PPCs in patients
undergoing LRS. The second aim was to compare pulmonary and systemic inflammatory
responses to LRS.
