During one‐lung ventilation in patients undergoing thoracic surgery, the persistent flow in the non‐ventilated lung increases intrapulmonary shunt and decreases systemic arterial oxygenation. This prospective, randomized, double blind study was conducted to evaluate the effects of inhaled iloprost during one‐lung ventilation on arterial oxygenation and shunt fraction during thoracic surgery.
