Unplanned reoperation after pulmonary surgery: Rate, risk factors and early outcomes at a single center.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Unplanned reoperation is a potential risk factor for worse prognoses and reflects the quality of surgical treatment. This study compared the short-term outcomes between patients with and without reoperation and identified clinical factors predicting reoperation within 90 days following pulmonary surgery.

Methods

Consecutive patients undergoing pulmonary resection from January 2012 to August 2021 at our institution were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical and operation-related data were collected and analyzed. Kaplan‒Meier, Cox hazard proportional regression, and propensity score matching were adopted for prognostic evaluation.

Results

A total of 90263 patients were included: 247 (0.27%) patients required reoperation within 90 days. Patients undergoing unplan
