FUNCTIONAL AND CLINICAL DISORDERS OF THE LUNG IN PATIENTS WITH CIRRHOSIS AND THEIR DYNAMICS IN OPERATIONS TUNNELING LIVER

Aim: Aim. To evaluate lung function in patients with liver cirrhosis of the liver with conservative therapy and surgery tunneling liver. Materials and methods: The study involved 55 patients with liver cirrhosis with portal hypertension. Patients were randomized into 2 groups. In the first group (n = 40) patients received medication. Patients of the second group (n = 15) was performed tunneling liver shunt operation. Results: In patients with liver cirrhosis observed clinical and functional remodeling of the lung appears shortness of breath, coughing, wheezing, and restrictive ventilatory disorders. Conclusions: In patients with cirrhosis of the liver after tunneling is observed normalization of lung ventilation. After conservative treatment reliable normalization of lung function occurs.
