ABSTRACT
The standard transvenous electrocardiostimulation (ECS) is currently used in many specialized hospitals. The authors offered and launched systematic application of simple but available technique of epymiocardiac ECS using pericardoscopy since middle of 80th. According to this principle, the authors developed some diversities of manipulation which are distinctive due to their availability, reliability and supersafety. The method could be recommended for wide-spread usage in practice because of high efficacy, few complications and absence of fatal outcomes in correct intervention. Described methods used in treatment of considerable quantity of patients and adapted to real work conditions of public health hospitals.

Four hundred and thirty nine sufferers were treated for closed thoracic trauma. Of them, 39 (8.9%) were operated on. Drainage of the pleural cavity was performed in 78 (17.7%) patients. In 2.1% of cases, clotted hemothorax was diagnosed. In 5 patients, thoracoscopic destruction of the clotted hemothorax was performed according to original technique. All the patients recovered.
