Thoracoscopic Lobectomy for Severe Bronchiectasis in Children
Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques, 07/07/09
Rothenberg SS et al. - Thoracoscopic lobectomy for severe lobar bronchiectasis with recurrent infection is technically challenging, but appears to be safe and effective. Avoidance of a thoracotomy, in this group of patients, allows for earlier mobilization, less postoperative pain with cough and chest physiotherapy, and faster recovery. There appear to be significant benefits in these patients with chronic respiratory illnesses.
