Understanding Recurrent Pneumothorax

Recurrent pneumothorax refers to the condition where a lung collapses repeatedly due to the accumulation of air or gas in the pleural cavity. It can cause severe discomfort, shortness of breath, and chest pain. Proper and timely treatment is essential to prevent further complications and improve quality of life.

Comprehensive Solutions for Recurrent Pneumothorax

Neumark Surgery offers a range of comprehensive solutions to effectively treat recurrent pneumothorax. Our expert team follows a personalized approach to provide tailored treatment options based on each patient's unique condition and needs.

Non-surgical Interventions

  • Observation: In certain cases, our experienced doctors may recommend observing the condition closely before deciding on an intervention. Regular follow-ups and imaging scans help us monitor the situation and take appropriate action if necessary.
  • Needle Aspiration: A minimally invasive procedure where a small needle is inserted into the pleural cavity to remove excess air or gas, providing immediate relief and allowing the lung to re-expand.
  • Chest Tube Insertion: For more severe cases, a chest tube may be placed to drain the air or gas over a period of time. This promotes lung re-expansion and prevents further collapses.

Surgical Options

In cases where recurrent pneumothorax persists or non-surgical interventions are not effective, our skilled plastic surgeons perform advanced surgical procedures to provide long-term solutions.

  • Pleurodesis: A surgical technique where the surface of the lungs is intentionally roughened or irritated, causing the lung to adhere to the chest wall. This helps to prevent further collapses and recurrence of pneumothorax.
  • Lobectomy: In severe cases where recurrent pneumothorax is caused by underlying lung disease, the affected lobe of the lung may be surgically removed. This eliminates the source of the problem and reduces the risk of future collapses.
