摘要: This article evaluates the advantages of fast-tracking patient who has undergone video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery instead open thoracotomy. Key issues such as chest tube and air leak management, pain medicine protocols, psychologic advantages, hospital length stay are examined. It concludes that teaching, philosophy, doctor attitude may be more important than type performed.
