Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2021
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.

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.

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 1998
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.

The Frontier of Medical Thoracoscopy
2013Advanced procedures in medical thoracoscopy are best described as nonroutine. They are interventions associated with greater complexity and lie somewhere between the medical procedure of thoracoscopy and the surgical procedure of VATS. The current advanced indications as described in the literature include sympathectomy and pericardial window.

Ultrasound and Medical Thoracoscopy
2009Ultrasound is a very useful adjunct to medical thoracoscopy. It allows a real-time assessment of the complexity of the pleural space at the bedside. This in turn minimizes complications and maximizes safety. Traditionally, the induction of a pneumothorax was necessary prior to beginning the medical thoracoscopy in order to minimize the risk of injury ...
