Our team of expert doctors, medical centers, and plastic surgeons is dedicated to offering the highest quality treatment, ensuring the best possible outcomes for our patients.

Understanding Pneumothorax

Pneumothorax is a medical condition characterized by the presence of air or gas in the pleural cavity between the lung and chest wall. It can occur spontaneously or as a result of chest injury or medical procedures. Pneumothorax can cause symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, and difficulty breathing.

Treatment Options

At Neumark Surgery, we offer a range of effective treatment options for pneumothorax based on the severity and underlying cause of the condition. Our experienced doctors and plastic surgeons work closely with each patient to determine the most suitable treatment approach.

1. Observation and Monitoring

In cases where the pneumothorax is small and the patient shows no or minimal symptoms, a conservative approach of observation and monitoring may be adopted. Regular follow-up examinations and imaging tests allow our medical experts to ensure that the condition does not worsen.

2. Chest Tube Insertion

For larger or more symptomatic pneumothorax cases, our skilled doctors may recommend chest tube insertion. This procedure involves inserting a flexible tube into the pleural cavity to drain the excess air or gas, allowing the lung to re-expand properly.

3. Chemical Pleurodesis

Chemical pleurodesis is a minimally invasive procedure commonly used to prevent recurrent pneumothorax. It involves the introduction of a chemical irritant into the pleural space, which creates inflammation and causes the lung to adhere to the chest wall, preventing further air or gas accumulation.

4. Surgery

In some cases, surgical intervention may be necessary for treating pneumothorax. Surgical options include thoracotomy or video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). These procedures enable the thoracic surgeon to directly access the pleural cavity, repair the lung, and remove any blebs or bullae, which are often the source of air leakage.
