OPTIMIZATION OF SURGICAL TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH PURULENT PLEURISIS
Keywords:
Exudative pleurisy, thoracoscopy, pleural biopsy, minimally invasive interventionsAbstract
The aim of the study was to improve the treatment results for patients with exudative pleurisy of non-specific etiology by introducing early thoracoscopy with pleural biopsy and endoscopic sanitation of the pleural cavity. The data of 108 patients treated in a specialized hospital were analyzed. The use of thoracoscopy in the early stages (up to 3 weeks from the moment of detection of pleurisy) ensured accurate morphological diagnostics in 100% of patients, accelerated the regression of clinical and radiological changes, reduced the duration of hospitalization and the frequency of complications. The developed diagnostic and treatment algorithm is recommended for widespread use in clinical practice.
