Imaged thoracoscopic lung biopsy.
Imaged thoracoscopic surgery is a technique utilized to operate on the intrathoracic organs without making a formal thoracotomy incision. Eleven patients underwent lung biopsy with this procedure and each had markedly reduced postoperative pain. Each patient resumed preoperative activity levels within one week of discharge from the hospital. Besides thoracotomy and thoracoscopy, imaged thoracos...

Patients with ILD, not specified after thorough clinical assessment, high-resolution CT (HRCT), bronchoalveolar lavage and transbronchial biopsy, were studied. Medical thoracoscopy w...
متن کاملEfficacy of video assisted thoracoscopic lung biopsy: an historical comparison with open lung biopsy.
BACKGROUND Video assisted thoracoscopic lung biopsies were compared with historical controls undergoing open lung biopsy to determine the diagnostic accuracy, effect on length of postoperative stay, and cost effectiveness of the new thoracoscopic technique. METHODS The first 25 video assisted thoracoscopic lung biopsies performed in the Edinburgh Thoracic Unit were compared with 25 historical...
متن کاملThoracoscopic surgery for lung cancer.
Thoracoscopic surgery has raised awareness in minimizing invasiveness in respiratory surgery. In the case of lung cancer, technical difficulties associated with standard curative surgery may not allow the use of a total thoracoscopic procedure. Although thoracoscopic lung cancer surgery is minimally invasive and safe, it demands a high level of skill and care. Surgery is often performed using a...
