Comprehensive Guide to Recurrent Pneumothorax Treatment

Understanding Recurrent Pneumothorax

Recurrent pneumothorax is a medical condition characterized by the presence of air or gas in the pleural space, causing the lung to collapse partially or fully. It is essential to seek timely medical attention for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Effective Treatment Options

At Neumark Surgery, our team of experienced doctors, medical centers, and plastic surgeons offers a range of treatment options tailored to meet your specific needs. From minimally invasive procedures to advanced surgical interventions, we prioritize patient care and safety.

Minimally Invasive Procedures

For mild cases of recurrent pneumothorax, minimally invasive procedures such as pleurodesis or thoracentesis may be recommended. These procedures help prevent the recurrence of pneumothorax by promoting the adhesion of the lung to the chest wall.

Advanced Surgical Interventions

In cases where recurrent pneumothorax is severe or persistent, surgical interventions such as VATS (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery) or thoracotomy may be necessary. These surgical procedures aim to repair the underlying lung issue and prevent future recurrences.

Recovery and Follow-up Care

After undergoing recurrent pneumothorax treatment, it is crucial to follow your doctor's post-operative instructions carefully. Be sure to attend all follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery progress and address any concerns promptly.
