Abstract:
Objective To compare the effect of video-assisted minithoracotomy(VAMT)and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery(VATS)for spontaneous pneumothorax.Methods 98 patiens with spontaneous pneumothorax allocated to VAMT or VATS were selected.The operation time,blood loss during operation,score of postoperative pain,time of postoperative drainage,postoperative hospital stay,surgery cost,rate of complication and recurrence were compared between the two groups.Results All patients were cured.The operation time,postoperative hospital stay and surgery cost were significantly different between VAMT and VATS groups(all P <0.05).The parameters of two groups were similar in score of postoperative pain,time of post-operative drainage,blood loss during operation,rate of complication and recurrence(all P > 0.05).Conclusion VAMT was as effective as VATS,but the operation time,postoperative hospital stay and surgery cost was significantly better than VATS.
