Understanding Pneumothorax

Pneumothorax, also known as a collapsed lung, is a condition characterized by the accumulation of air in the pleural space surrounding the lungs. This can cause the lung to partially or completely collapse, leading to breathing difficulties and discomfort. At Neumark Surgery, we specialize in the surgical management of pneumothorax, offering effective treatments that aim to provide relief and restore lung function.

Pneumothorax Surgical Management Techniques

Our team of highly skilled doctors and plastic surgeons at Neumark Surgery employs advanced techniques to manage pneumothorax. These techniques include:

1. Thoracentesis

Thoracentesis is a minimally invasive procedure that involves the removal of excess air or fluid from the pleural space using a needle inserted between the ribs. This technique provides immediate relief in cases of simple pneumothorax and allows the lung to re-expand.

2. Chest Tube Insertion

In more severe cases of pneumothorax, where air accumulation is significant, a chest tube may be inserted to facilitate the removal of air or fluid. This procedure helps re-establish proper lung function and allows the lung to re-expand over time.

3. Video-Assisted Thoracoscopy

Video-assisted thoracoscopy, commonly known as VATS, is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses a small camera and specialized instruments to visualize and treat the pleural space. This technique allows our surgeons to precisely locate and repair the source of air leakage, reducing the risk of recurrence.

4. Pleurodesis

Pleurodesis is a surgical procedure that aims to prevent recurrent pneumothorax by creating adhesions between the lung and the chest wall. This is achieved by introducing a chemical or substance into the pleural space. Pleurodesis helps to permanently seal the air leak and prevent future collapses.
