The purpose of this review is to elaborate on the role of medical thoracoscopy for various diagnostic and therapeutic parietal pleural interventions. The renewed interest in medical thoracoscopy has b...
Medical thoracoscopy to obtain pleural biopsies is established largely as a safe and effective diagnostic procedure. Recent data suggest how a pragmatic biopsy-first approach in specific cancer scenar...
This article reviews contemporary published data to highlight the best utility of medical thoracoscopy as a diagnostic procedure for undiagnosed exudative effusions or effusions suspected to be second...
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) using a thoraco- or laparoscope is becoming a more common surgical technique. In MIS, a magnified view from a thoracoscope helps surgeons conduct precise operations. H...
The PVR is used instead of a wound retractor or a trocar. It is a ring-type socket with one big hole for the thoracoscope and four small holes for tiny cameras placed around the big hole. The views fr...
We evaluated the view-expansion ability of the PVR by using a three-dimensional full-scale thoracic model. The experimental results showed that the entire thoracic cavity could be visible in a panoram...
We developed the PVR, which uses tiny auxiliary cameras to create a panoramic view of the entire thoracic cavity during MIS. We aim to make MIS safer for patients and more comfortable for surgeons thr...
Local anesthetic thoracoscopy (LAT) is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure gaining recognition among chest physicians for managing undiagnosed pleural effusions. This single-port procedure is co...
Thoracentesis and thoracoscopy are used to diagnose malignant pleural effusions (MPE). Data on how sensitivity varies with tumour type is limited....
Systematic review using PubMed was performed through August 2020 to determine the sensitivity of thoracentesis and thoracoscopy for MPE secondary to malignancy, by cancer type, and complication rates....
Meta-analyses for sensitivity of thoracentesis for MPE secondary to malignancy, mesothelioma and lung and breast cancer included 29, eight, 12 and nine studies, respectively. Pooled sensitivities were...
Sensitivity of thoracentesis varied significantly per cancer type. Pooled complication rates were low. Awareness of how sensitivity of thoracentesis changes across cancers can improve decision-making ...
Retained hemothorax remains a common problem after thoracic trauma with associated morbidity and prolonged hospitalizations. The goal of this study was to examine the impact of time to video assisted ...
Patients undergoing VATS for retained hemothorax within the first 14 days postinjury were identified from the Trauma Quality Improvement Program database over 5 years, ending in 2016. Demographics, me...
From the Trauma Quality Improvement Program database, 3,546 patients were identified. Of these, 2,355 (66%) suffered blunt injury. The majority were male (81%) with a median age and Injury Severity Sc...
Patients undergoing VATS for retained hemothorax have significant morbidity and prolonged length of stay. VATS within the first week of admission results in fewer pulmonary complications and shorter l...
It is still controversial whether surgical or nonsurgical treatment approaches are most appropriate for empyema in children, and there are no data regarding the role of medical thoracoscopy in this po...
In this article, we are going to report our experience on thoracoscopy approach for pulmonary sequestration in children and compare it with traditional open approach....
This retrospective study included 25 patients with pulmonary sequestration (marked as Group 1), who were treated from January 2003 to December 2009 with open approach, and 32 patients treated between ...
To bring less-related effect during the comparison, patients with similar preoperative data were selected. Group 2 whose operation time was longer than Group 1 was completed with thoracoscopy approach...
Compared to open surgery, thoracoscopy surgery has many benefits and was safe, feasible, and effective for the treatment of pulmonary sequestration in child patients....
Medical thoracoscopy (MT) is a well-established diagnostic procedure in cases of unexplained exudative pleural effusions. Despite the advantages of MT, challenges remain since occasionally malignancie...
To assess the relationship between the macroscopic appearance of the pleura at MT, the histology of the pleural biopsy and the final diagnosis after follow up....
Data was prospectively collected on patients undergoing MT over 8 years, using a standardised electronic thoracoscopy report. We report the sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive v...
A total of 228 thoracoscopies and biopsy were performed, 70 reports described benign macroscopic changes; of these 15.7% had malignant histology. When the final outcome was taken into account, the sen...
A standardised structured report allows reliable evaluation of the macroscopic findings at MT. The PPV of the macroscopic findings for malignancy is relatively high; however, in a significant minority...
Local anesthetic thoracoscopy (LAT) is important in the diagnosis of unilateral pleural effusions. Indwelling pleural catheters (IPC) can be inserted during LAT if a nonexpandable lung is suspected. S...
