Abstract
Successful outcomes for unilateral pneumonectomy in piglets require special attention to preoperative nutritional optimization, gentle ventilation, and meticulous surgical dissection. Preoperative weight gain and albumin levels should be used to identify appropriate surgical candidates. The “ventro-cranial” approach allows for a technically straightforward completion of the procedure.
