RESUMO

OBJETIVO:

Relatar uma série de casos de pacientes com mediastinite descendente necrosante (MDN) tratados com cirurgia torácica minimamente invasiva.

MÉTODOS:

Relatamos os casos de três pacientes com MDN submetidos à desbridamento mediastinal através de cirurgia torácica videoassistida no Hospital São Paulo, São Paulo (SP), desde a sua admissão até o desfecho final.

RESULTADOS:

Os três pacientes apresentaram boa evolução pós-operatória, com tempo médio de internação de 16,7 dias.

CONCLUSÕES:

Concluímos que a videotoracoscopia é uma técnica efetiva para a drenagem mediastinal no tratamento da MDN, com os benefícios da cirurgia minimamente invasiva menos dor pós-operatória, menor liberação de fatores inflamatórios, retorno precoce às atividades diárias e melhores resultados estéticos.
ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

To report a case series of patients with descending necrotizing mediastinitis (DNM) who were treated with minimally invasive thoracic surgery.

METHODS:

We report three cases of male patients with DNM who underwent mediastinal debridement by video-assisted thoracic surgery at the Hospital São Paulo, located in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, from admission to the final outcome.

RESULTS:

The postoperative evolution was favorable in all three cases. The mean length of hospital stay was 16.7 days.

CONCLUSIONS:

We conclude that video-assisted thoracoscopy is an effective technique for mediastinal drainage in the treatment of DNM, with the benefits common to minimally invasive surgery less postoperative pain, lower production of inflammatory factors, earlier return to activities of daily living, and better aesthetic results.
