Understanding Pneumothorax

Pneumothorax is a medical condition characterized by the presence of air in the pleural cavity, the space between the lungs and the chest wall. This condition can occur spontaneously without any underlying cause or as a result of trauma, lung disease, or medical procedures. It can cause symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, and decreased lung function.

Surgical Management

When conservative treatments like observation and chest tube placement fail to resolve pneumothorax or if the condition is severe, surgical management becomes necessary. Neumark Surgery specializes in various surgical techniques for the effective management of pneumothorax.

Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS)

Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery, commonly known as VATS, is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that allows our skilled surgeons to visualize and treat the condition with the help of a small video camera and specialized instruments inserted through tiny incisions. VATS offers numerous advantages over traditional open surgery, including reduced pain, shorter hospital stays, faster recovery, and minimal scarring.

Thoracotomy

Thoracotomy is a surgical procedure performed to gain direct access to the chest cavity through a larger incision. It allows our surgeons to repair lung tissue, remove air or fluid from the pleural space, and treat the underlying cause of pneumothorax. While thoracotomy is more invasive compared to VATS, it may be necessary in complex cases or when other treatments have not been effective.

Pleurodesis

Pleurodesis is a surgical procedure aimed at preventing recurrent pneumothorax. It involves the insertion of a substance, such as talc or a chemical irritant, into the pleural space to create inflammation and adhesions between the outer and inner layers of the pleura, effectively sealing any air leaks. This procedure can be performed using VATS or thoracotomy, depending on the individual patient's needs and circumstances.
