Abstract

Background: Retrospective study was carried out on patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax with the aim of determining if conventional thoracoscopic wedge resection is superior to modified transaxillary minithoracotomy with thoracoscopy in the surgical treatment. Material and Method: 160 patients, aged 14 to 35 years with primary spontaneous pneumothorax were involved in this study. Patients were assigned to two groups by surgical technique; Conventional thoracoscopic wedge resection (group A; n=80) and modified transaxillary minithoracotomy with thoracoscopy (group B; n=80). Apical pleural abrasion & talc poudrage were performed in all cases. This study evaluated the following factors: duration of operation, days of analgesics used after operation, number of no air leak on the first postoperative day, duration of indwelling chest tube, hospital stay, postoperative complications, chronic chest pain (during follow-up) and resumption of normal activity. Relapses (ipsilateral recurrence after discharge) during follow-up periods were evaluated. Result: No significant differences were found in any of the factors studied in either group. Conclusion: Conventional thoracoscopic wedge resection and modified transaxillary minithoracotomy with thoracoscopy offer similar results in the surgical treatment of primary spontaneous pneumothorax. The rate of complication is low and the level of pain is acceptable without long-term sequele. Therefore, modified transaxillary minithoracotomy with thoracoscopy method appears as a valuable alternative surgical technique.

배경: 저자는 원발성 자연 공기가슴증 환자에서 고식적인 비디오흉강경하 쐐기절제술이 흉강경을 이용한 변형된 소절개술식보다 우수한가를 결정할 목적으로 후향적으로 연구를 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 원발성 자연 공기가슴증을 보인 $14\~35$세 사이의 160명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 환자는 수술기법과 수술 접근법에 의해서 고식적인 흉강경하 쐐기절제술군(A군: 80예)과 흉강경을 이용한 변형된 소절개술식을 이용한 군(B군: 80예)으로 분류하였다. 모든 환자에서 술 후 늑막강 첨부의 찰과상과 탈크 도포를 수행하였다. 이 연구는 수술시간, 수술 후 사용한 진통제의 사용일수, 수술 첫날 공기누출이 없는 수, 흉관 삽관일과 병원 입원일, 그리고 술 후 합병증, 추적기간 동안의 만성 흉통과 일상생활로 복귀할 때까지의 기간 그리고 또한 추적기간 동안에 수술동측에서의 재발을 평가하였다. 결과: 양 군사이에서 연구한 평가요소 중 어느 것에서도 의의 있는 차이는 없었다. 결론: 고식적인 비디오 흉강경하 쐐기절제술과 흉강경을 이용한 변형된 소절개술식은 원발성 자연 공기가슴증 환자의 수술적 치료에 있어서 유사한 결과를 야기하였다. 합병증의 발생률도 낮고, 통각도 장기 추적동안에 받아들일 만 하였다. 따라서 흉강경을 이용한 변형된 소절개술식 또한 가치 있는 대체수술 기법으로 보인다.
