Abstract:
Objective:To summarize the experience and technical difficulties of complete thoracoscopic lobectomy(segmental) in the treatment of congenital pulmonary airway malformation in children.Methods:The clinical data, surgical videos and follow-up results of 38 children suffering from congenital pulmonary airway malformation and underwent complete thoracoscopic lobectomy in Children′s Hospital of Fudan University Xiamen Branch from January 2017 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.A statistical comparisons of operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative pain (the first time of getting out of bed), incision length and postoperative pulmonary complications were made between 28 children who underwent the total thoracoscopic lobectomy and 21 children who accepted open surgical lobectomy before January 2017 in Children′s Hospital of Fudan University Xiamen Branch.Results:Thirty-eight children with congenital pulmonary airway malformation were successfully operated by complete thoracoscopy.There were 28 lobectomies, 6 segmental lobectomies and 4 wedge lobectomies.Postoperative follow-up was conducted for more than 3 months, and no serious surgical complications occurred.Chest radiograph of 2 children with the right lower lobectomy at 48 hours after surgery had the elevation of the right diaphragm (2-3 intercostal), and it returned to normal 3 months after surgery.The CT review of 1 child with pulmonary wedge resection 1 month after surgery displayed a little residual lesion.Thoracoscopic lobectomy was significantly different from open surgery in terms of incision length[(2.0±0.5) cm vs. (10.0±0.5) cm], postoperative pain (the first time of getting out of bed)[(24.0±2.0) h vs. (48.0±1.5) h] and pulmonary complications (0 vs. 5 cases). The operative time of single lung ventilation was remarkably different from that of double lung ventilation in thoracoscopic lobectomy[(96.0±6.0) min vs. (118.0±7.0) min, t=106.501, P<0.001]. Compared with thoracoscopic lobectomy, thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy has a long time and a large amount of blood loss. Conclusions:Complete thoracoscopic lobectomy (segmental) is the first choice for the treatment of congenital pulmonary airway malformation in children, with clear operative field, little trauma, less postoperative pain, quick recovery and fewer respiratory complications.Single-lung ventilation is beneficial for surgical completion.
