Few people know that Stanislav Govorukhin lived for six months with one lung, and this is not easy even for a young man. And for a man at a respectable age - a real feat. Stanislav Sergeevich underwent a pulmonectomy (removal of a lung) operation when he was already 80 years old. What is the peculiarity of this operation? A void forms in the chest at the site of the removed organ, and the remaining lung tries to fill it, just like other organs strive to do: the heart, blood vessels - they increase. Because of this, the load on the cardiovascular and other systems increases, a person needs much more energy even for simple things.
Therefore, Stanislav Sergeevich's heart could not stand it, and he died at the age of 82.
