Introduction to Pneumothorax

If you have been diagnosed with pneumothorax, you may be looking for the most effective surgical management options available. Look no further than Neumark Surgery, a leading medical center specializing in treating pneumothorax. Our team of experienced doctors and plastic surgeons is dedicated to providing unparalleled care to help you regain your health and quality of life.

Understanding Pneumothorax

Pneumothorax occurs when air accumulates in the pleural space, the area between the lungs and chest wall. This abnormal air collection can lead to lung collapse and cause symptoms such as sudden chest pain, shortness of breath, and rapid breathing. If left untreated, pneumothorax can have serious consequences.

Surgical Management Techniques

Neumark Surgery specializes in advanced surgical techniques for pneumothorax management, providing effective solutions for patients with this condition. Our skilled team is trained in the latest surgical methods, ensuring optimal outcomes for our patients.

1. Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS)

VATS is a minimally invasive procedure that allows our surgeons to visualize and operate inside the chest cavity using small incisions and a tiny camera called a thoracoscope. This technique reduces patient discomfort, promotes faster recovery, and minimizes the risk of complications.

2. Pleurodesis

Pleurodesis is a surgical procedure performed to prevent recurrent pneumothorax. It involves creating adhesion between the lung and chest wall to prevent the recurrence of abnormal air collection. Our experienced surgeons employ various techniques for pleurodesis, such as chemical pleurodesis or mechanical pleurodesis, tailored to each patient's specific needs.

3. Thoracotomy

In rare cases, a thoracotomy may be necessary for pneumothorax surgical management. This traditional open surgery involves making a larger incision on the side of the chest to access and repair the affected area. Our skilled plastic surgeons have extensive experience in thoracotomy, ensuring precise and effective treatment.
