Specialized ventilation and careful preoperative evaluation help minimize pulmonary injury during post-pneumonectomy CABG.
This case report discusses anesthetic management and ventilation strategies to minimize pulmonary injury in a post-pneumonectomy patient undergoing CABG.
Specialized ventilation strategies may aid post-pneumonectomy CABG; single case leaves open need for prospective validation before broader adoption.
SUMMARY The aim of this case report is to discuss the recommendations for preoperative evaluation, the technical difficulties experienced in the perioperative period and the ventilation methods used to minimize pulmonary injury in a post-pneumonectomy patient undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting surgery.
