Core Tip This study identifies two independent risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) following hepatobiliary surgery: Age ≥ 75 years and prolonged anesthesia. Conducted in a large Chinese hepatobiliary center, the retrospective analysis of 1941 patients revealed an incidence rate of PPCs at 4.02%. Patients with PPCs experienced significantly higher hospitalization costs, medication expenses, and longer lengths of stay compared to those without complications. These findings underscore the need for targeted interventions to mitigate PPCs in high-risk populations and improve surgical outcomes.
