Introduction

Welcome to Neumark Surgery, a premier medical center specializing in plastic surgery. Our expert team of doctors and plastic surgeons is committed to providing top-notch medical care and innovative treatment options. In this article, we will focus on our comprehensive small pneumothorax treatment services and how they can help you regain your health and well-being.

Understanding Small Pneumothorax

A small pneumothorax occurs when air leaks into the space between your lungs and chest wall, causing the lung to collapse partially. It can be caused by various factors such as trauma, spontaneous rupture of a small air blister on the lung surface, or underlying lung diseases like COPD.

At Neumark Surgery, we understand the impact pneumothorax can have on your daily life. Our team of experienced doctors and medical professionals specializes in diagnosing and treating small pneumothorax cases, providing personalized and effective solutions tailored to each patient's specific needs.

Diagnostic Procedures

Before designing a treatment plan, our doctors perform thorough diagnostic procedures to accurately assess the extent of the pneumothorax. This may involve chest X-rays, computed tomography scans, or ultrasound imaging.

With advanced imaging technologies at our disposal, we can precisely locate the source of the air leak and determine the severity of the pneumothorax. This enables us to devise a targeted treatment strategy that maximizes success rates and minimizes risks.

Treatment Options

Neumark Surgery offers a range of effective small pneumothorax treatment options, including:

  • Observation: In some cases, a small pneumothorax may resolve on its own without medical intervention. Our doctors carefully monitor these cases to ensure the lung re-expands and there are no complications.
  • Needle Aspiration: This procedure involves inserting a thin needle into the chest to remove the trapped air. It is a minimally invasive technique that can provide immediate relief and facilitate lung re-expansion.
  • Chest Tube Insertion: For larger or more persistent cases, our skilled surgeons may recommend a chest tube insertion. This involves placing a flexible tube into the affected area to drain the air and allow the lung to re-expand fully.
  • Pleurodesis: In recurrent small pneumothorax cases, our plastic surgeons may perform pleurodesis. This procedure uses chemicals or medications to create adhesions between the lung and chest wall, preventing future air leaks.
