Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Placebo Comparator: Placebo group
Placebo 80mg was administered orally on the evening before surgery. Before anesthesia induction, placebo 40mg was administered orally. And placebo 40mg were administered orally in the evening of postoperative days 0, 1, and 2.
Experimental: Statin group
Atrovastatin 80mg was administered orally on the evening before surgery. Before anesthesia induction, atrovastatin 40mg was administered orally. And atrovastatin 40mg were administered orally in the evening of postoperative days 0, 1, and 2.
