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...
متن کاملMedical thoracoscopic lung biopsy in interstitial lung disease: a prospective study of biopsy quality.
The aim of this study was to analyse the quality and diagnostic value of lung biopsies for the diagnosis of interstitial lung disease (ILD), taken with diathermy coagulation cup forceps during medical thoracoscopy. 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 کاملComparison of video thoracoscopic lung biopsy to open lung biopsy in the diagnosis of interstitial lung disease.
BACKGROUND Up to one third of patients with interstitial lung disease will require a lung biopsy for diagnosis. Open lung biopsy is generally accepted as the most reliable method of biopsy and tissue diagnosis. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of video thoracoscopic lung biopsy, a minimally invasive technique, with open lung biopsy in the diagnosis of interstitia...
متن کامل[Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Segmentectomy Using Infrared Thoracoscopy with Indocyanine Green].
The maintenance of a good surgical view is mandatory in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). For routine segmentectomy, it is necessary to re-inflate the lung in order to identify the intersegmental borders. However, such re-inflation can occasionally obstruct the surgical view and can lead to prolongation of operation time, particularly in the context of VATS. Infrared thoracoscopy( IR...
