Why the study?
Does long-term Doppler echocardiographic evaluation show right ventricle modifications after major lung resections?
Does long-term Doppler echocardiographic evaluation show right ventricle modifications after major lung resections?
Right ventricle modifications are evident after pneumonectomy and should be monitored despite lacking clear clinical impact.
RV modifications post-pneumonectomy support echocardiographic surveillance; leaves open their prognostic value in prospective cohorts.
Right ventricle modifications are clearly evident after pneumonectomy and even if they do not show a clear clinical impact they should not be neglected.
