An apical symphysial technique using a wide absorbable mesh placed on the apex for primary spontaneous pneumothorax
Surgical Endoscopy, 03/24/09
Nakanishi K - Placement of a wide absorbable mesh with fibrin glue at the apical visceral pleura significantly reduced postoperative recurrence after thoracoscopic bullectomy for PSP. The mesh was thought to act as a foreign body on the pleura and induce local inflammatory adhesion between the apical pleurae after bullectomy. This was an easy and effective symphysial procedure.
