متن کاملPain following thoracoscopic surgery: retrospective analysis between single-incision and three-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery
BACKGROUND The current trend in thoracoscopic surgery is to use fewer ports to decrease postoperative pain, chest wall paresthesia, and duration of hospital stay. In this study we compared the results of our current experience with single-incision thoracoscopic surgery (SITS) and conventional three-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (3P-VATS). METHODS From October 2011 to August 2012, ...
متن کاملSubxiphoid single-incision thoracoscopic surgery for bilateral primary spontaneous pneumothorax
It has been reported that single-incision thoracoscopic surgery can reduce postoperative pain without compromising the main surgical steps required for treating patients affected by primary spontaneous pneumothorax.
