The evolving role of medical thoracoscopy on therapeutic management of pleural disease
Current opinion in pulmonary medicinePurpose of review The use of medical thoracoscopy (MT) has gained widespread acceptance for the diagnosis and management of pleural disease. It is less invasive compared to video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), can be performed in the endoscopy ...

Sudden death during medical thoracoscopy
Journal of Forensic and Legal Medicine, 2014Medical thoracoscopy (or pleuroscopy) is a valuable diagnostic tool in patients with pleural pathology, being minimally invasive, inexpensive and relatively easy to learn. Complications may occur, depending on the complexity of the case, and mainly include broncho-pleural fistulas, chest infections, arrhythmia, severe hemorrhage due to blood vessel ...

Medical thoracoscopy (MT) remains a mini-invasive and very efficient technique to diagnose pleural diseases. In case of pleural effusion of unknown etiology its diagnostic yield is higher than 90%. MT also allows to perform cheap and successful pleurodesis by simple talc insufflation in case of recurring pneumothorax and invalidating malignant pleural ...

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 ...

[Interventional medical thoracoscopy].
Revue des maladies respiratoires, 2000Interventional thoracoscopy is an important tool for diagnosis of pleural disease. We present a description of available material and thoracoscopic methods, discussing therapeutic informations for: pleural effusion, pneumothorax, sympathectomy, empyema. Instruction for each therapeutic situation are presented together with expected results.
