Management of paediatric spontaneous pneumothorax: a multicentre retrospective case series

Abstract: In this descriptive study of pneumothorax management, PSP and SSP management did not differ and ICC insertion was the continuing preferred intervention. Overall success of aspiration was lower than reported results for adults, although success was greater for small than for large pneumothoraces. Paediatric prospective studies are urgently required to determine optimal paediatric interventional management strategies.

“…There is limited, low quality evidence around the use of simple aspiration in children, and this is not commonly used by North American pediatric surgeons [1,11]. Two recent retrospective studies in children suggest that simple aspiration is only successful in about 50% of children with PSP, less frequently than in adults [14,15].…”

Din momentul apariţiei fistulei bronho-pleurale, ne aşteptăm la o evoluţie lentă a bolii, cu necesitatea menţinerii drenajului pleural pasiv pâna la închiderea acesteia, acesta fiind suprimat în momentul în care în sistemul de drenaj nu mai barbotează aer, iar imaginea radiologică este fără aspect de pneumotorax (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16).…”
