Objective: To determine the mortality and perioperative complication rates following pneumonectomy for benign lung diseases at Pham Ngoc Thach Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City.
Materials and Methods: A retrospective case series study based on medical records from January 1, 2019, to December 31, 2023.
Results: A total of 33 patients met the study criteria. The mean age was 35.7 years, with females comprising the majority (63.6%). Regarding patient history, posttuberculosis sequelae were the most common (78.8%). Left pneumonectomy was performed in 72.7% of cases. The main thoracotomy approaches were posterolateral (87.9%) and anterolateral (12.1%). The average surgery duration was 161 minutes, and the mean intraoperative blood loss was 374 ml. Perioperative complications occurred in 16 patients (48.5%).
Conclusion: Despite a relatively high overall complication rate, the rates of severe complications and mortality were low
