    AbstractThe aim of the article is to review principles of thoracic anesthesia for pulmonary surgery. This article is divided into three sections. Preoperative considerations include pulmonary evaluation and optimal pulmonary preparation. Intraoperative period considerations are monitoring requirements, choice of anaesthesia and the indications for providing one-lung ventilation. Postoperative problems of immediate life-threatening complications, management of mechanical ventilation and control of pain are discussed in the third part.
