Treatment of chronic pulmonary abscesses with application of miniinvasive electrosurgical technologies

Abstract

Objective. To raise the efficacy of surgical treatment in patients, suffering chronic pulmonary abscesses, using miniinvasive electro–surgical technologies. Materials and methods. A single centre randomized controlled retro– and prospective investigation, which is based on analysis of the surgical treatment results in 78 patients, suffering chronic pulmonary abscesses, operated on base of the Zaytsev Institute of General and Urgent Surgery (Kharkiv) in a period from 2011 to 2021 yr. Results. Analysis of data of conducted dynamical instrumental control for efficacy in two different methods of treatment in patients, suffering chronic pulmonary abscesses, proves the enhanced efficacy of the treatment program proposed over the standard tactics. Conclusion. The methods of surgical interventions elaborated have permitted to impact in a positive and essential way the endogenous intoxication indices, to escape the resections performance, to lower the postoperative morbidity quantity, to prevent the adjacent organs injuries, to shorten a duration of clinical and social–labor rehabilitation of patients with achievement of stable positive effect.
