VIDEO – ASSISTED THORACOSCOPIC SURGERYFOR PRIMARY SPONTANEOUS PNEUMOTHORAX: THE RESULTS AT MILITARY HOSPITAL 103
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: To evaluate the results of video – assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for primary spontaneous pneumothorax. Subjects and methods: From January 2016 to April 2021, 77 patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax underwent VATS at Military Hospital 103. Results: The average surgical time was 56.1±6.6minutes. Postoperative hospital stay was7.2 ±1.1days. The rate of postoperative complications was 2.6%. Conclusions: VATS is safe and effective in the treatment of primary spontaneous pneumothorax. The patient recovered quickly, the hospital stay was short, and therate of postoperative complications was low.
