Özet
Background Patients who underwent lung resection in our clinic were retrospectively investigated in terms of development of postoperative cardiac complications. Methods The file records of 207 patients who underwent lung resection between the years 2010 and 2014 were reviewed. One hundred and eighteeen (118%) (57%) of the patients were evaluated by the preoperative cardiologist and the risk level of the patients was determined according to the Lee index. Postoperative cardiac complication relation was compared with each parameter. Results The difference between the mean age of the patients with and without complication was statistically significant (p = 0.024). When the patients were grouped as over and under 65 years old, the risk of developing postoperative complications was higher and statistically significant (p = 0.015) in patients over 65 years of age. When the patients were evaluated in line with the presence of additional disease, smoking and electrocardiogram (ECG) findings, patients with hypertension developed more complications than those without hypertension (p = 0.002). When the logistic regression was adjusted according to age and sex, the development of cardiac complications in patients with hypertension was 3.25 times greater. Conclusions It should be kept in mind that the presence of hypertension in patients who will undergo lung resection and advanced age increases the risk of cardiac complications and that preoperative cardiology care may be appropriate for these patients.
