The aim of this study was to determine the parameters of pulmonary function before and after pleurectomy\/decortication or extrapleural pleuropneumonectomy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Methods: We conducted a review of 48 patients with unilateral malignant pleural mesothelioma who underwent pleurectomy\/decortication or extrapleural pleuropneumonectomy. Data including medical history, histology, survival, and pre- and postoperative pulmonary function were extracted from the medical database of the University Medical Center Freiburg, or sought by telephone interview with the general practitioner or patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results: 25 patients underwent extrapleural pleuropneumonectomy and 23 had pleurectomy\/decortication. Pulmonary function was not significantly reduced in the pleurectomy\/decortication group postoperatively. In the extrapleural pleuropneumonectomy group, the median preoperative total lung capacity of 4.8\u2009L (77.7%) differed significantly from the postoperative total lung capacity of 3.5\u2009L (55.3%; p\u2009&lt;\u20090.0006). The median vital capacity was significantly reduced from 2.8\u2009L (77.7%) preoperatively to 1.8\u2009L (47.6%) postoperatively ( p\u2009&lt;\u20090.0002). Other parameters were also highly significantly reduced after extrapleural pleuropneumonectomy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusions: Pleurectomy\/decortication preserved good pulmonary function, whereas extrapleural pleuropneumonectomy significantly reduced pulmonary function, which may lead to dyspnea and influence the quality of life of these patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0218492312454017","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,5,6]],"date-time":"2013-05-06T09:37:22Z","timestamp":1367833042000},"page":"48-55","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["Changes
