Understanding Recurrent Pneumothorax

Recurrent pneumothorax is a condition characterized by the accumulation of air in the pleural cavity, the space between the lung and the chest wall. This buildup of air can cause the lung to collapse partially or completely, leading to symptoms such as sudden chest pain, shortness of breath, and difficulty in breathing.

At Neumark Surgery, we understand the distressing impact recurrent pneumothorax can have on your daily life. That's why we offer a range of tailored treatments designed to address your specific needs and provide lasting relief.

Treatment Options

Surgical Intervention

One of the most effective approaches to treating recurrent pneumothorax is through surgical intervention. Our experienced team of plastic surgeons specializes in minimally invasive surgical techniques, ensuring faster recovery times and reduced scarring.

During the surgical procedure, our skilled surgeons will make small incisions through which a camera and specialized instruments will be inserted. This allows them to visualize and repair any damaged or weakened areas of the lung, preventing further pneumothorax episodes.

The advancements in surgical technology at Neumark Surgery enable us to accurately diagnose the underlying cause of recurrent pneumothorax and address it effectively. Our physicians closely monitor your progress before, during, and after the surgery, ensuring optimal results and enhanced patient satisfaction.

Nonsurgical Treatment

In some cases, nonsurgical interventions may be recommended as an initial treatment for recurrent pneumothorax. These options may include:

  • Chest Tube Insertion: This procedure involves the insertion of a chest tube to allow the air to escape from the pleural cavity. The tube is left in place until the lung re-expands.
  • Pleurodesis: Pleurodesis involves the use of chemicals or drugs to create adhesions between the lung and chest wall. This helps prevent the buildup of air and reduces the likelihood of recurrent pneumothorax.
  • VATS (Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery): This minimally invasive procedure utilizes a small camera and instruments to inspect and treat the lung, resulting in reduced pain and faster recovery times.

At Neumark Surgery, our medical centers are equipped with cutting-edge technology to ensure the most effective treatment for recurrent pneumothorax. Our team of experts will carefully assess your condition and recommend the most suitable approach tailored to your individual needs.
