    We study spectral asymptotics and resolvent bounds for non-selfadjoint perturbations of selfadjoint hh-pseudodifferential operators in dimension 2, assuming that the classical flow of the unperturbed part is completely integrable. Spectral contributions coming from rational invariant Lagrangian tori are analyzed. Estimating the tunnel effect between strongly irrational (Diophantine) and rational tori, we obtain an accurate description of the spectrum in a suitable window in the complex spectral plane, provided that the strength of the non-selfadjoint perturbation ≫h\gg h (or sometimes ≫h2\gg h^2) is not too large.Comment: 66 page
