The most frequent operations, described in Table 3, were anatomical lobectomy (11) and wedge segmentectomy (8); followed by mediastinoscopy (4), bullectomy (3), pleural biopsy (2), lung biopsy (2), extrapleural pneumonectomy (1), anatomical sublobar resection (1), and 2 emergency thoracotomies, 1 for control of thoracic trauma damage and another due to mediastinitis. The average length of stay was 4.72 days. The patients had the following postoperative complications: 1 patient had non-surgical bleeding; 1, acute renal failure; 1, pneumothorax; and 1, atrial fibrillation, all of which were resolved favourably. The patient who had thoracic trauma presented with fever and pulmonary infiltrates 7 days after the operation and was diagnosed with bilateral SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia. Two patients died within 30 days after surgery: 1 was diagnosed with COVID-19 and the other died of advanced cancer.
