Abstract:
ObjectivesTo monitor the pneumothorax conditions in real time by analyzing thoracic cavity gas during pneumothorax treatment, and provide instructions for updating the treatment strategy.MethodsThe partial pressures of O2and CO2in the thoracic cavity from 49 pneumothorax patients was analyzed before the management and after chest tube clogging during the management. The pneumothorax type was differentially diagnosed according to the partial pressure results, and the treatment strategy was updated accordingly.ResultsThe 49 pneumothorax patients were divided into four groups, as follows: Group A, 30 patients with a closed pneumothorax were confirmed to have a closed pneumothorax in the second analysis; Group B, 10 patients with an open pneumothorax were confirmed to have an open pneumothorax in the second analysis; Group C, three patients with a tension pneumothorax confirmed to have a tension pneumothorax in the second analysis; and Group D, six patients with a closed pneumothorax were re-diagnosed to have an open pneumothorax in the second analysis. The cure rates of the four groups after treatment were as follows: Group A (97%, 29/30), Group B (100%, 16/16), Group C (100%, 3/3) and Group D (100%, 6/6).ConclusionsAnalyzing thoracic cavity gas during pneumothorax treatment is suggested as an efficient way to monitor the pneumothorax conditions in real time and to provide instructions for updating the treatment strategy.

Abstract:
The authors’ treatment experience of 292 patients with spontaneous pneumothorax is presented. Results of the pleural drainage (188 patients), thoracoscopy and talc pleurodesis (43 patients), videothoracoscopic surgical treatment (61 patients) are discussed. Recurrent pneumothorax after videothoracoscopic treatment was in 1 case only and only 1 patient needed in open thoracotomy (p < 0.05). Videothoracoscopy is an accurate, safe, and reliable alternative for open thoracotomy and conservative treatment in the management of patients with spontaneous pneumothorax.

Abstract:
Abstract Background There is still no reference standard for the implantation of totally implantable venous access ports (TIVAPs). A recently published multicentre randomised controlled trial (RCT) revealed a significantly greater risk of pneumothorax after closed cannulation than after an open strategy. The aim of this meta-analysis was to provide an update of the available evidence for the safety and effectiveness of primary open versus closed cannulation strategy. Methods RCTs comparing outcomes of open cut-down of the cephalic vein and closed cannulation of the subclavian vein were sought systematically in MEDLINE, Web of Science and CENTRAL. The primary outcome was the occurrence of pneumothorax. A beta-binominal model was applied to combine the respective outcomes, and results are presented as odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI). Results Six RCTs with a total of 1831 patients were included in final analysis. Meta-analysis showed statistically significant superiority of the open cut-down technique regarding pneumothorax (OR 0.308, 95% CI 0.122 to 0.776), but a statistically significant higher failure of the primary technique for the open cut-down technique than for closed cannulation (OR 2.364, 95% CI 1.051 to 5.315). There were no significant differences between the two procedures regarding other morbidity endpoints. Conclusion This meta-analysis shows a general superiority of open cut-down of the cephalic vein over closed cannulation of the subclavian vein regarding the occurrence of pneumothorax. Open cut-down should be the first-line approach for TIVAP implantation. Closed cannulation should be performed with ultrasound as second-line procedure if the open technique fails.

Abstract:
1. INTRODUCTION Spontaneous pneumothorax is one of the most common types of aeropathic syndrome, caused by chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, tuberculosis and complicated lung cancer. Nearly two hundred years have passed since the first description of the first cases of pneumothorax. Although during this period the scientist´s view of the etiology, pathogenesis, diagnostics and treatment methods has changed, a number of issues related to the diagnostics and treatment of this complication of pulmonary diseases remain unsolved. The aim of the treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax is to remove the cause of this condition, to perform the decompression of the pleural cavity, to induce the obliteration of the pleural cavity and to prevent the recurrence of the disease. Pleural puncture and drainage of the pleural cavity are not sufficiently effective – the incidence of incomplete lung expansion and rapid recurrence of the disease (relapse) reaches 25% [Mova VA, 1999]. Urgent thoracotomy is performed in cases when the drainage of the pleural cavity fails to reduce the symptoms of the aeropathic syndrome and breathing and blood circulation insufficiency caused by the spontaneous pneumothorax. Frequently thoracotomy is performed after pleural drainage in cases of exudative pleuritis or starting pleural empyema. The postoperative period is marked by a large number of complications and prolongation of hospital stay, and post-operative mortality in the group of geriatric... [to full text]

Abstract:
Pectus excavatum is a funnel-shaped congenital deformity of the chest. Although the deformity can appear minimal at birth, it may be progressive. There may be cardiac or pulmonary compromise in addition to subjective complaints of pain and shortness of breath. Management ranges from breathing exercises to surgical repair with mobilization of the sternum and ribs. This can be performed using an open or thoracoscopic technique. Complications of surgical repair include atelectasis and pneumothorax. Significant pain is associated with the surgical procedures and multimodal analgesic therapy, including thoracic epidural analgesia and intravenous narcotics, are typically used. This chapter discusses the etiology and management of pectus excavatum.

Abstract:
The case illustrates the diagnosis and treatment of a patient with swimming-induced pulmonary edema (SIPE), an uncommon cause of pulmonary edema in triathletes and military recruits. The pathophysiology is not completely understood but is thought to relate to the effects caused by immersion in conjunction with vigorous exertion. Diagnosis is by history and physical, with the prototypical SIPE patient being a previously healthy athlete exhibiting acute onset edema while exercising in the water. Typical symptoms and signs include shortness of breath, hypoxia, rales, and cough, which may or may not be productive with pink, frothy sputum. Radiographs may be obtained but are mainly obtained to rule out other diagnoses including pneumonia and pneumothorax. Treatment is supportive, although some evidence is mounting that shows decreasing rates of SIPE with prophylactic sildenafil.

Abstract:
This case describes the management of penetrating trauma to the abdomen and thorax caused by a rocket-propelled grenade. The patient presents with an open pneumothorax, which should be initially managed in the field with a 3-sided occlusive dressing or, ideally, with an Asherman chest seal. Definitive management includes placement of a chest tube drain and possibly surgical exploration and repair.

Abstract:
Respiratory conditions are common, and the burden of morbidity on the general population is high. You only have to take part in a few general medical takes as a junior doctor to realize this. As the on- call bleep goes off again, you are referred another exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma, a breathless patient (is it a pul­monary embolism, pneumothorax, or something less common?), or a patient with haemoptysis and weight loss [is it lung cancer or tuberculosis (TB)?] or productive cough (pneumonia or bronchiectasis?). The number of different respiratory conditions can be bewildering, and it is essential for the developing physician to be able to manage ‘common presenta­tions’, as well as potentially life- threatening situations such as an asthma attack or an acute pulmonary embolism. The nuances of history taking is often key to successfully clinching a diagnosis: ● What chronic conditions, respiratory or otherwise, do your patients have? ● What is the onset of symptoms? Sudden breathlessness may indicate a pneumothorax or pulmonary embolus. A chronic productive cough may indicate COPD or bronchiectasis. ● Social history— do they smoke, what are their living conditions, what is their occupation? Luckily, we have other tools to help us. The age- old art of inspec­tion, palpation, percussion, and auscultation during an examination is essential when assessing the patient. Combined with imaging techniques, including chest radiography, CT scanning, and bedside thoracic ultra­sound, the answer is often easily obtained. Keeping an open mind to the less common causes of breathlessness, cough, and haemoptysis is important. Combined with lung function testing, autoimmune blood tests, and bronchoscopy, subtler diagnoses such as interstitial lung dis­ease, fungal lung disease, and autoantibody- induced haemoptysis may be revealed. And a word to the wise— not all breathlessness originates from the lungs! For instance, an increased body mass index will cause a physical restriction on the mechanics of breathing and a compensated metabolic acidosis may cause tachypnoea. As with all chronic diseases, the management of chronic respira­tory disease is becoming increasingly complicated with the advent of biologics, immunotherapy, antifibrotic therapy, and a genuinely confusing array of inhalers.
