Thoracoscopy in treatment of non tuberculous empyema / 中国内镜杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of thoracoscopic pleural dissection in the treatment of non tuberculous empyema. Methods 48 non tuberculous empyema were selected from January 2015 to June 2017, according to the treatment methods, divided into the observation group (n = 24) and control group (n = 24), the observation group was treated with thoracoscopic pleural dissection treatment, the control group were treated with traditional thoracotomy for the treatment of more than two groups, effect of treatment. Results The observation group of patients with operation time, bleeding volume, drainage time and hospitalization time were significantly less than the control group (P < 0.05); the two groups of patients before treatment, FVC, FEV1, TLC compared no significant difference, no statistical significance (P > 0.05); after treatment, the patients' FVC, FEV1, TLC significantly increased (P < 0.05), and the patients in the observation group FVC, FEV1and TLC were significantly higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). PO2, PCO2and WBC were significantly better than the treatment of two groups of patients after treatment, and the observation group of patients with PO2after treatment (80.30 ± 9.26) mmHg, PCO2(45.53 ± 4.27) mmHg and WBC (8.85 ± 3.62) g/L index was significantly better than the control group PO2 (70.33 ± 8.75) mmHg, PCO2(51.61 ± 5.40) mmHg and WBC (10.81 ± 4.00) g/L, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for the treatment of non tuberculous empyema has less trauma and faster postoperative recovery.
