Introduction Spontaneous pneumothorax usually occurs sporadically in healthy young adults and the cause is often unknown. Kjaergaard (1935), and Brock (1948) favoured the presence of hereditary congenital lung cysts, which by rupturing, produced a pneumothorax. Familial cases of spontaneous pneumothorax have been described several times since the original description by Faber (1921). The occurr...
Med J Malaysia Vol 66 No 2 June 2011 We read with interest Tengku Ismail et al’s recent national survey article on initial management of spontaneous pneumothorax (SP) . Given the paucity of data regarding prevalence and outcomes of SP in Malaysia, the authors should be commended for raising local awareness of this important and relatively common condition, and for highlighting the lack of aware...
It has been reported that single-incision thoracoscopic surgery can reduce postoperative pain without compromising the main surgical steps required for treating patients affected by primary spontaneous pneumothorax. However, all the reported thoracoscopic surgery cases with a single-incision procedure were via the intercostal route for unilateral pulmonary lesions. We present a novel single-inc...
OBJECTIVE We aimed to describe electrocardiographic (ECG) findings in spontaneous pneumothorax patients before and after closed thoracostomy. METHODS This is a retrospective study which included patients with spontaneous pneumothorax who presented to an emergency department of a tertiary urban hospital from February 2005 to March 2015. The primary outcome was a difference in ECG findings betw...
Spontaneous pneumothorax is a recognised cause of respiratory distress in the neonatal period. Spontaneous pneumothorax occurring during the neonatal period in a term neonate is rare. We report a case of symptomatic spontaneous pneumothorax associated with congenital heart disease which needed intercostal drainage and mechanical ventilation in our NICU unit.
Recurrence after thoracoscopic surgery for primary spontaneous pneumothorax is a lingering problem, and many intraoperative methods to induce pleural symphysis have been introduced. We analyzed the effects of chemical pleurodesis during thoracoscopic procedures. Between August 2003 and July 2005, 141 patients among indicated surgical treatment for primary spontaneous pneumothorax in two hospita...
Thoracoscopic talcage (TT) is a safe and effective prophylactic treatment for patients suffering from recurrent primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP). Empirically, TT is considered equally effective in the treatment of persistent secondary spontaneous pneumothorax (SSP), although this has not yet been proved. In this study, the efficacy and safety of TT was prospectively evaluated in 28 patien...
The aim of the present study was to determine the impact of various pleurodesis procedures on post-operative morbidity and late recurrence rate after surgical treatment of Vanderschueren's stage III primary spontaneous pneumothorax. Between January 2001 and June 2004, 208 consecutive patients (169 male and 39 female; mean (range) age 25 (12-39) yrs) were submitted to 220 video-assisted thoracos...
BACKGROUND Limited information is available on epidemiology of spontaneous pneumothorax (SP) from India. The present study was aimed at studying aetiology and clinical profile of patients with SP. METHODS All patients admitted at a tertiary care hospital with the diagnosis of SP between January 2001 and March 2002 were prospectively studied. Detailed demographic and clinical data were recorde...
BACKGROUND Usefulness of prophylactic antibiotics following tube thoracostomy remains controversial in the literature. In this study, we aimed to investigate the consequences of closed tube thoracostomy for primary spontaneous pneumothorax without the use of antibiotics. METHODS One-hundred and nineteen patients underwent tube thoracostomy for primary spontaneous pneumothorax. None of them re...
