  1. Increased Effective Lung Volume Following Lung Volume Reduction Surgery in EmphysemaPresented by Leslie Wattkis 02/25/02Homan, S et al 2001. Increased Effective Lung Volume Following Lung Volume Reduction Surgery in EmphysemaVolume 120(4) October pp 1157-1162

  2. Emphysema • Hyperinflation • Dispena • Decrease motility

  3. Pulmonary function test

  4. Lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS) • Elastic recoil of the alveoli( PEL) • Diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) • Lung diffusion capacity corrected for alveolar ventilation (KCO)

  5. Flow Volume • Obstruction • Increase aeration • Increase volume

  6. Effect of the surgery • Prognosis • Volume increase

  7. Post LVRS • Perfusion • ventilation • Partial arterial oxygen PaO2 • Carbon dioxide CaO2

  8. Increase VA • Increase FEV1 • Increase FVC

  9. Emphysema patients that meet the requirements for surgery show significant improvements once the affected area is removed from the rest of necrotic tissues

  10. Any question?
