Klinik und rationelle Therapie des Spontanpneumothorax

Abstract: Im Laufe von 20 Jahren (1950 bis März 1971) wurden 220 Fälle von Spontanpneumothorax bei 179 Patienten, 153 Männern und 26 Frauen, beobachtet. Die rechte Seite war bevorzugt betroffen (n = 134), ebenso traten Rezidive gehäuft rechts auf. Der Beginn war in den meisten Fällen (n = 155) akut, mit Thoraxschmerzen, Atemnot und Husten als führenden Symptomen. Die Behandlung bestand 169mal in interkostaler Saugdrainage mit oder ohne gezielte Pleurodese nach Thorakoskopie. Meist genügten eine Drainage von wenigen Tag… Show more

“…Because of its high relapse rate, aspiration therapy may not be recom mended in the treatment of PSP. Pleurodesis therapy with different substances [28] is rejected by many surgeons be cause of the inducible pleural problems during surgery in case of recurrence in patients who had pleurodesis [29.30], while the results of pleurodesis therapy (15% recurrence rate) are only slightly better than with chest tube drainage (n = 408) [9,10,11,20,36,37], Therefore, drainage therapy over a period of several days appears to be the most suit able therapy [26], It is interesting to speculate whether, apart from the type of therapy, local extension of bleb and bullae forma tion may affect the recurrence rate of PSP. If so, one would expect to find more and larger bullae and blebs in those patients in whom pneumothorax recurs.…”

“…The disadvan tages of thoracoscopy are: incomplete inspection of the whole of the lung surface, inability to visualize lung tissue and its subjectivity which depends on the operators' expe rience. Thoracoscopic studies carried out on PSP patients [4,9,[10][11][12], revealed pathologic findings in about 66% (n = 742 PSP patients). Furthermore, large bullae had not been recognized by thoracoscopy [20], Macroscopic operative findings in surgery revealed bullae and bleb formation or fibrotic changes in about 92% (n = 595) [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] of pneumothorax cases irrespective of the type of pneumothorax -primarily operated PSP [1] or recurrent pneumothorax [2][3][4][5][6][7][8], In the present study, CT achieved comparable results in the diagnosis of bullae and bleb formation (88 vs. 92%).…”
