Abstract:
BACKGROUND:There is no consensus on one or two chest drains closed chest drainage in superior lobectomy of lung cancer and mediastinal lymph node dissection. This study investigated the postoperative complications about drainage and evaluated the effectiveness.
METHODS:We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of patients with single closed chest drainage in superior lobectomy of lung cancer and mediastinal lymph node dissection of Beijing Friendship Hospital between April 2012 and May 2017, and evaluated the effectiveness.
RESULTS:From the available data of 301 patients, the complication rate after superior lobectomy was 9.3%, and the complication rate of drainage after superior lobectomy was 5.64%.
CONCLUSIONS:The effectiveness of drainage of single closed chest drainage in superior lobectomy of lung cancer and mediastinal lymph node dissection is no less than double drainage.
