Lobectomy results in minimal, statistically non-significant changes in spirometry in non-tuberculous patients.
Pre- and postoperative FEV1 showed a slight decrease from 1.9 L to 1.7 L, while the FEV1/FVC ratio modestly increased.
Thirty patients were evaluated, with bronchiectasis being the most common diagnosis among non-tuberculous conditions.
The study suggests preserved lung function post-lobectomy, highlighting its effectiveness in managing pulmonary diseases.
