ABSTRACT
Objective To propose a treatment protocol by videothoracoscopy in spontaneous pneumothorax. Methods One hundred and three patients underwent Video assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) treatment of spontaneous peumothorax and hemothorax. Indications included recurrent pneumothorax, persistent air leakage following conservative therapy, complicated hemothorax and CT scan identified bullae formation. Results No operative deaths occurred, conversion rate was 2.91%, recurrence rate was 0.97%, complication rate was 3.81% and mean postoperative hospital stay was 5.6 days. Conclusions VATS treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax is better than open chest surgery and also superior than conservative therapy.
