Thoracoscopy for Idiopathic Pneumothorax in Children (PNOPED)

May 15, 2023 updated by: Dr Christelle DESTINVAL, University of Lorraine

Video-Assisted Thoracoscopy for Idiopathic Pneumothorax in Children: a Retrospective Monocentric Study

The goal of this retrospective study is to describe the outcomes of spontaneous idiopathic pneumothorax treated by thoracoscopy with pleural abrasion and blebectomy.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • are there risk factors leading to pneumothorax recurrence?
  • are pleural abrasion and blebectomy really diminishing the recurrence of pneumothorax?

The time between the surgery and postoperative consultation dates
Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 years
Follow-up represents the time between the surgery and postoperative consultation dates in days, months, or years. Generally, there are a-month-follow-up, a three month-follow-up, a six month-follow-up, and a year-follow-up. The surgeon can see the patient if there is any problem between these consultations. After a year of follow-up, it is up to the surgeon to decide if the patient needs to be seen yearly or not. The last follow-up date is crucial because it indicates how the patient is and if other follow-up dates need to be applied.
Through study completion, an average of 2 years
