The Best Primary Pneumothorax Treatment at Neumark Surgery

At Neumark Surgery, we specialize in providing top-notch medical care in the categories of Doctors, Medical Centers, and Plastic Surgeons. One of the areas where we excel is in offering effective primary pneumothorax treatment for our patients.

Understanding Primary Pneumothorax

Primary pneumothorax refers to a condition where there is a collection of air in the pleural space, which can lead to lung collapse. This condition often occurs spontaneously without any underlying lung disease or trauma. It can cause symptoms like sudden chest pain and shortness of breath.

Diagnosis of Primary Pneumothorax

When a patient presents with symptoms suggestive of primary pneumothorax, our skilled medical team at Neumark Surgery conducts a thorough examination. This may include a physical assessment, chest X-rays, and sometimes computed tomography (CT) scans to determine the extent of the condition.

Treatment Options

When it comes to primary pneumothorax treatment, Neumark Surgery offers a range of effective options tailored to each patient's needs. These may include:

• Observation: In cases of small, uncomplicated pneumothorax, close monitoring may be sufficient as the air may resorb on its own.
• Chest Tube Insertion: For larger pneumothoraces or persistent cases, a chest tube can be inserted to remove the air and allow the lung to re-expand.
• Pleurodesis: This procedure involves the introduction of an irritant substance into the pleural space to create inflammation, causing the lung to adhere to the chest wall and prevent recurrent pneumothorax.
• Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS): In refractory cases or for recurrent pneumothorax, VATS may be performed to repair air leaks and prevent future occurrences.
