Fixing a Collapsed Lung - Neumark Surgery

The Importance of Addressing a Collapsed Lung

A collapsed lung, also known as a pneumothorax, is a serious condition that requires immediate medical attention. It occurs when air escapes from the lung and fills the space between the lung and the chest wall. This can lead to difficulty in breathing and can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.

Understanding the Procedure

At Neumark Surgery, our team of experienced doctors and plastic surgeons specializes in fixing a collapsed lung using advanced techniques and state-of-the-art technology. The procedure, known as thoracostomy or chest tube insertion, involves inserting a small tube into the chest to drain the excess air or fluid and allow the lung to re-inflate.

The Process

During the procedure, our skilled doctors will first administer local anesthesia to minimize any discomfort. They will then create a small incision in the chest wall and carefully insert the chest tube into the pleural space. This tube acts as a pathway for the air or fluid to escape, thus enabling the lung to re-expand.

Our team of highly trained doctors and plastic surgeons has extensive experience in performing thoracostomy procedures to fix collapsed lungs. We understand the urgency and the delicate nature of this condition, and we prioritize patient safety and comfort throughout the entire process.
