About Recurrent Pneumothorax
Recurrent pneumothorax refers to the condition where air accumulates in the pleural space between the lung and the chest wall, leading to a collapsed lung. This condition can be distressing and painful, often requiring urgent medical attention. At Neumark Surgery, we have specialized in the treatment of recurrent pneumothorax and have successfully helped numerous patients in regaining their lung function and improving their overall quality of life.
Treatment Approaches
Our experienced doctors at Neumark Surgery utilize advanced treatment approaches to effectively manage and treat recurrent pneumothorax. These treatment options may include:
1. Medical Management
In some cases, recurrent pneumothorax can be managed through conservative, non-surgical methods. Our doctors will closely monitor your condition and may prescribe medications to alleviate symptoms, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. Regular follow-up visits will be scheduled to ensure your progress and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan.
2. Thoracentesis
Thoracentesis is a procedure in which a small needle is inserted into the pleural space to remove excess air or fluid. This can help relieve pressure and promote lung re-expansion. Neumark Surgery has a state-of-the-art facility equipped with the latest technology to perform thoracentesis safely and efficiently.
3. Chemical Pleurodesis
If your recurrent pneumothorax persists or recurs frequently, our doctors may recommend a procedure called chemical pleurodesis. During this procedure, a sclerosing agent is introduced into the pleural space to induce inflammation and scarring. This scarring helps the lung to adhere to the chest wall, preventing recurrent pneumothorax.
4. Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS)
In more severe cases or when other treatment options have not been successful, our skilled plastic surgeons can perform video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). This minimally invasive procedure involves the insertion of a small camera and surgical instruments through small incisions, allowing for precise visualization and repair of the damaged lung tissue. VATS offers numerous benefits, including reduced post-operative pain, shorter recovery times, and improved cosmetic outcomes.
5. Surgical Pleurodesis
For cases that do not respond to other treatments, surgical pleurodesis may be necessary. This surgical procedure involves creating intentional adhesions between the lung and the chest wall to prevent the recurrence of pneumothorax. Neumark Surgery has a team of skilled surgeons with expertise in performing surgical pleurodesis using the most advanced techniques.
