Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of the single-direction lobectomy in the treatment of complicated pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 88 patients with complicated pulmonary tuberculosis who received lobectomy in our hospital from 2017 to 2019. There were 64 males and 24 females, with an average age of 21-70 (47.67±13.39) years. According to the surgical procedure, patients who received single-direction lobectomy were divided into a single-direction group (n=32), and those who received traditional lobectomy were divided into a control group (n=56). Results The two groups had no statistical differences in gender, age, primary disease and complications, lesion morphology, clinical symptoms, operative site, interlobitis adhesion or hilar mediastinal lymph node calcification (P>0.05). Operation time [210.0 (180.0, 315.0) min vs. 300.0 (240.0, 320.0) min], intraoperative blood loss [200.0 (100.0, 337.5) mL vs. 325.0 (200.0, 600.0) mL], postoperative lung air leak time [3.0 (2.0, 5.0) d vs. 9.0 (6.8, 12.0) d] and the postoperative hospital stay [11.5 (8.0, 14.8) d vs. 18.0 (14.0, 22.0) d] of the single-direction group were less or shorter than those of the control group (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference between the single-direction group and the control group in the incidence of surgical complications [1 patient (3.12%) vs. 10 patients (17.86%)] or the cure rate [32 patients (100.00%) vs. 54 patients (96.43%)]. Conclusion The single-direction lobectomy can reduce lung injury and bleeding, shorten the duration of operation and accelerate the postoperative recovery in patients with complicated pulmonary tuberculosis, which has certain advantages compared with traditional lobectomy.
