Operative management of pulmonary injuries: Lung-sparing and formal resections
Elsevier eBooks(2024)
Abstract
Penetrating pulmonary injuries frequently require thoracotomy, as most of these injuries are successfully managed with chest tube insertion, evacuation of pneumothoraces and hemothoraces, and pulmonary re-expansion. Of those that require thoracotomy for pulmonary repair and resection, approximately 85% can be managed with pulmonary sparing lung techniques, thus avoiding complications due to lobectomy or pneumonectomy.
