Factors associated with compensatory lung growth after pulmonary lobectomy for lung malignancy: an analysis of lung weight and lung volume changes based on computed tomography findings

ConclusionsThis study identified younger age, a light- or non-smoking history, and a large resection volume as the predictors of CLG in patients who underwent pulmonary lobectomy for lung malignancy. All of these three factors may be reasonably connected to CLG.
