Uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in treatment of primary spontaneous pneumothorax:report of 32 cases

Objective To discuss the feasibility and advantages of uniportal video - assisted tho- racoscopic surgery（UVATS） in the treatment of primary spontaneous pneumothorax（PSP）. Method From September 2009 to December 2010,32 patients with PSP received UVATS, and their clinical data were restrospectively analyzed. The utility port for operation（ 1.5 - 2.0 cm long） was located at the third or fourth rib in the anterior axillary line,while the port for observation（ 1.0 cm long）was located at the seventh or eighth rib in the middle axillary line. Result There were 31 patients subjected to UVATS suceesfully,and 1 patient was converted to traditional video - assisted thoracoscopic surgery. Operative duration was 30 - 100 min, averaging 50min ; intraoperative blood loss was 20 - 120 ml, averaging 45 ml ; chest drainage was 30- 100 ml, averaging 55ml; Hospital stay was 2 -5 days, averaging 3.5 days. All patients were discharged without severe complications. During a follow -up for 5 -21 months （averaging 14 months）, there were no recurrences or chronic pains. Conclusion The UVATS has advantages of minimal invasion and good curative effect,which is a safe and feasible treatment for PSP.
