摘要: Abstract Background The object of this study was to assess the efficay and maximum duration effect pleural tent in reducing incidence air leak after upper lobectomy. Methods Two hundred patients who underwent lobectomy were prospectively randomized into two groups: 100 an a procedure (group 1; tented patients) only not 2; untented patients). preoperative, operative, postoperative characteristics both groups compared. Then multivariate analyses used identify factors predictive prolonged leaks their duration. reduction incidences subsequently compared during successive periods. Results No differences detected between terms preoperative operative characteristics. A significant occurred group 1 for mean days (2.5 vs 7.2 days; p Conclusions Pleural tenting safe that reduced hospital stay costs. benefit from achieved before day 4.
