A case requiring re-thoracotomy due to a significant reduction of tidal volume after commencement of chest tube drainage under pressure control ventilation following lower lobectomy

Abstract: Background The use of pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV) during one lung ventilation (OLV) has been popular to avoid high airway pressure. We experienced a case of a significant reduction of tidal volume (TV) after commencement of chest tube drainage under PCV following lower lobectomy, which required re-thoracotomy to evaluate the degree of air leak. Case presentation A 70-year-old man was scheduled for a lower lobectomy. OLV was managed by PCV… Show more

“…Consequently, TVs may decrease after the commencement of chest drainage in such a situation. We have experience in managing a case of significant TV reduction after commencement of chest tube drainage under PCV following left lower lobectomy [ 6 ]. It was suspected that such a phenomenon occurred because continuous negative intrapleural pressure by chest drainage caused overextension of the lung, which increased elastance.…”

“…It was suspected that such a phenomenon occurred because continuous negative intrapleural pressure by chest drainage caused overextension of the lung, which increased elastance. Table 1 shows ventilating parameters in this case report [ 6 ]. In this case, TV decreased by 10 cmH 2 O of chest drainage even with the same driving pressure and PEEP because both P-TPP and EE-TPP were changed by the commencement of chest drainage.…”
