Exercise testing and postoperative complications after minimally invasive lung resection: A cohort study.

Peak oxygen uptake ( ) during cardiospulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is used to stratify postoperative risk following lung cancer resection but peak thresholds to predict post-operative mortality and morbidity were derived mostly from patients who underwent thoracotomy. We evaluated whether peak or other CPET-derived variables predict post-operative mortality and cardiopulmonary morbidity after minimally invasive video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for lung cancer resection. A retrospective analysis of patients who underwent VATS lung resection between 2002 and 2019 and in whom CPET was performed.
