Variable	Median preoperative, n=14 [IQR]	Median postoperative at 3 months, n=14 [IQR]	P value compared to preoperative
FEV1%	32.5 [27–37]	37.5 [32–48]	0.002
FEV1, mL	690 [597–850]	925 [780–1,093]
TLC %	117 [110–136]	108 [102–114]	0.014
TLC, mL	6,260 [5,480–8,500]	5,710 [5,060–7,200]
RV, %	187 [171–241]	147 [123–196]	0.002
RV, mL	4,010 [3,240–5,335]	3,020 [2,525–4,158]
RV/TLC, %	64 [62–70]	58 [54–62]	0.001
DLCO, %	30 [23–39]	32 [26–44]	0.116

DLCO, diffusion capacity; FEV1, forced expiratory volume in 1 second; IQR, interquartile range; mL, milliliters; RV, residual volume; RV/TLC, RV-TLC-ratio (= hyperinflation); TLC, total lung capacity.
