Abstract : Post-operative complication can be defined as any deviation from the normal post-operative course. The majority of post-operative complications affects the subgroup of high-risk patients, and they are clearly associated with increased hospital length of stay and mortality. This review deals with the principal complications occurring during the post-operative period. In particular, we describe the preventive and management strategies to face pulmonary, cardiac, renal and neurological complications.
