Objective: To investigate the perioperative nursing of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for spontaneous pneumothorax. Methods: The patient was given preoperative psychological nursing, respiratory training, postoperative respiratory tract management, drainage tube nursing, complication prevention and nursing care. Results: Through the perioperative nursing intervention, the surgery was successful and the patient was in stable condition in the recovery period, with no complications or adverse reactions. In the expected time, the patient completed the clinical treatment plan and discharged. Conclusion: The comprehensive nursing intervention after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for spontaneous pneumothorax can help reduce postoperative complications, promote patients' recovery and improve nursing satisfaction.
