Methods 31 patients with severe COPD underwent LVRS, bilateral LVRS in 11 patients and unilateral in 20 patients. The results of lung function (FEV1, RV, TLC), arterial blood gas analysis (PAO2, PACO2 ) and color Doppler echocardiography (CD,CI,FS,EF,PAP) were analyzed before and 3 month after LVRS in 26 cases. Results FEV1, RV and TLC were improved significantly after surgery ( P 【 0. 01). PaO2 increased (P 【 0. 05 ) and PaCO2, decreased postoperatively (P 【 0. 01). According to the Doppler echocardiography, there were no statistic differences in cardiac functions (CO, CI, FS, EF, and PAP) between pre- and post-operation. The 6-minute-walk-distance in 26 patients was (227 ± 88) m, significantly increased after surgery. Conclusion LVRS is effective in the treatment of patients with severe COPD. 3 months after operation, the展开更多
