Risks associated with surgical procedures include pulmonary  (lung) complications. These lung complications can be severe, and, in some cases, even fatal. Certain surgical procedures are more likely to be associated with lung complications, including operations on the lungs, the heart, and the upper abdomen. The October 14, 2009, issue of JAMA is a theme issue devoted to surgical care and includes an article about pulmonary complications after surgery.
