Postoperative pulmonary function recovery differed by lobe, with significant variability observed across patients.
Approximately 25% reduction in FVC, FEV1, and DLCO was noted in several lobes post-surgery, indicating concerns about recovery.
Mixed-effects models were utilized to analyze lobe-specific differences in pulmonary function over time.
Accurate outcome prediction necessitates consideration of lobe-specific characteristics and compensation in lung function.
