[Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for spontaneous pneumothorax].
OBJECTIVE To explore the operational procedures, indications, and the long-term results of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) in the treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax. METHODS One hundred seventy three cases of spontaneous pneumothorax treated with VATS in our hospital between 1995 and 2001 were analyzed. Primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) was found in 157 cases and secondary...
متن کاملThoracoscopic findings in spontaneous pneumothorax in AIDS.
Six patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) who suffered eight spontaneous pneumothoraces between January 1990 and January 1993 underwent videothoracoscopy. The predominant macroscopic findings, found in four patients on five occasions, were white-yellow nodules dispersed throughout the lung surface. In addition, in one patient, these lesions were associated with multiple sm...
متن کاملThe Effect of Thoracoscopic Pleurodesis in Primary Spontaneous Pneumothorax: Apical Parietal Pleurectomy versus Pleural Abrasion
BACKGROUND The standard operative treatment of primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) is thoracoscopic wedge resection, but necessity of pleurodesis still remains controversial. Nevertheless, pleural procedure after wedge resection such as pleurodesis has been performed in some patients who need an extremely low recurrence rate. MATERIALS AND METHODS From January 2000 to July 2010, 207 patien...
متن کاملOutcome of Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery for Spontaneous Secondary Pneumothorax
BACKGROUND Conventional treatment (i.e. chest tube insertion and chemical pleurodesis) still remains standard for patients with secondary spontaneous pneumothorax because the risk of surgical bullectomy is deemed high in this subset. However, it has been suggested that surgical treatment using thoracoscopy may expedite postoperative recovery and, thus, may reduce hospital stay. MATERIALS AND ...
متن کاملVideo-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for primary spontaneous pneumothorax: clinicopathological correlation.
OBJECTIVE To compare the identifiable pulmonary abnormalities during thoracoscopy with the histological findings in patients requiring surgical intervention for recurrent or persistent primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) and correlate these with the postoperative events. METHODS From January 1999 to December 2002, 94 consecutive patients underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic wedge excisio...
