Abstract
Preoperative evaluation prior to thoracic surgery aims to assess the risk associated with the planned surgical intervention and thus to aid the selection of the appropriate plan of anaesthesia and of perioperative care that will provide optimal patient safety. Risk factors for the occurrence of perioperative and postoperative complications can be classified as patient-related and procedure-related. Among others, they include age, increased body weight, the presence of comorbidities such as chronic respiratory diseases, smoking history, site of surgery, duration of anaesthesia
