Pneumothorax Treatment Surgery Process

1. Diagnosis

Accurate diagnosis is the first step in effective pneumothorax treatment. Our experienced doctors utilize various diagnostic techniques, including imaging tests such as X-rays and CT scans, to identify the extent and location of the collapsed lung. This allows us to develop a customized treatment plan tailored to each patient's specific needs.

2. Non-surgical Treatment Options

In some cases, small pneumothorax may resolve on its own without invasive intervention. Our team closely monitors such cases, ensuring patients receive appropriate care while minimizing unnecessary surgical procedures.

• Observation: In minor cases, where the lung collapses only partially and there are minimal or no symptoms, close observation is recommended. This involves regular check-ups and monitoring the progress of the condition.
• Invasive Procedures: For larger or more severe cases, a minimally invasive procedure known as a chest tube insertion may be necessary. During this procedure, a small tube is inserted through the chest wall to remove excess air and re-expand the lung.

3. Surgical Treatment

For cases that require surgical intervention, our skilled surgeons perform various surgical techniques to treat pneumothorax effectively.

Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS)

VATS is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat pneumothorax. It involves making small incisions and inserting a tiny camera and surgical instruments into the chest cavity. This allows the surgeon to visualize the collapsed lung and repair it without the need for large incisions. VATS offers several benefits, including reduced post-operative pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery time.

Open Thoracotomy

In more complex cases, an open thoracotomy may be required. This involves making a larger incision and accessing the lung directly. Although more invasive, an open thoracotomy allows for extensive repair and provides the surgeon with a broader view of the affected area.
