Medical thoracoscopy is an effective and safe modality to visualize and sample contents of the pleural cavity. It is an outpatient procedure that can be performed while the patient is spontaneously breathing, with the use of local anesthesia and intravenous medications for sedation and analgesia.

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2014 The burden of pleural diseases continues to rise and affects an increasingly complex and aging patient population. As such, thoracentesis is one of the most common procedures performed by respiratory physicians, as pleural fluid analysis can establish the diagnosis of pleural effusions in approximately 75% of the cases. When a diagnosis is not reached,

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2009
The technique and clinical applications of medical thoracoscopy have substantially evolved in the last few decades. The recent development of a semirigid thoracoscope, which is handled similarly to a bronchoscope, has made this procedure more attractive to pulmonologists.

Thoracoscopy has received increasing attention over the past decade as a result of the considerable advances that have been made in the development of endoscopic instruments. In contrast to the newly established video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, the classic way to perform thoracoscopy is using only local anesthesia and sedation (medical ...

Respiration, 2008
As opposed to ‘video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery’ which requires general anesthesia, double-lumen tracheal intubation and single lung ventilation, medical thoracoscopy (or ‘pleuroscopy’) is frequently performed in the respiratory endoscopy suite using local anesthesia.

Medical thoracoscopy for pleural diseases
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2023Purpose of review The purpose of this review is to elaborate on the role of medical thoracoscopy for various diagnostic and therapeutic parietal pleural interventions. The renewed interest in medical thoracoscopy has been boosted by the growth of the field of interventional pulmonology and, possibly, well tolerated and evolving

Medical thoracoscopy/pleuroscopy
2012Medical thoracoscopy/pleuroscopy (MT/P), compared with surgical thoracoscopy (VATS), has the advantage that it can be performed under local anesthesia or conscious sedation, in an endoscopy suite, using nondisposable rigid (or semirigid) instruments. Thus, it is considerably less expensive.

Medical thoracoscopy in pneumothorax
European Respiratory Journal, 2013Introduction: Spontaneous pneumothorax is associated with high morbidity often requiring hospital admission and recurrences. Medical thoracoscopy may find a important place in management of pneumothorax. Aims & objectives: To assess role of medical thoracoscopy in spontaneous pneumothorax on duration of intercostal drainage (ICD), hospital stay and
