Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diseases of the pleura such as effusion, thickening, or pneumothorax are frequently encountered in the practice of medicine. Practical Thoracoscopy presents an encyclopedic approach to the use of thoracoscopy in the diag nosis and treatment of patients with pleural disease. After an initial chapter on the history of thoracoscopy, the next three chapters of the book are devoted to the general technique of performing thoracoscopy, a topic on which the team of Dr. Boutin and his colleagues write with ample experience. In these chapters they provide detailed de scriptions of how to perform the procedure and discuss the pros and the cons of the different approaches and the different equipment available. The following chapter discusses the complications of the procedure. The next chapter discusses the role of thoracoscopy in diagnosing pleu ral effusions. My own opinion here is in general that, as long as well trained personnel are available, thoracoscopy is preferable to open pleural biopsy, because it is associated with less morbidity and mortality and can be done if necessary under local anesthesia. The following chapter is directed at using to thoracoscopy to facilitate pleurodesis for chronic pleural effusions. With Boutin's method, talc pou drage is performed during thoracoscopy, and certainly, if a thoracoscopy is used to establish the diagnosis of a malignant pleural effusion, it is appro priate to attempt to induce a pleurodesis with talc at the time of the diag nostic procedure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an increasing need for medical thoracoscopy performed by pulmonologists, which may be video assisted and has the advantage of being very cost-effective. This book is a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to thoracoscopy for pulmonologists that documents the considerable progress in endoscopic telescopes and instrumentation. Clear practical guidance is provided on technique, and diagnostic, therapeutic, and interventional applications of thoracoscopy are all carefully examined with the aid of high-quality illustrations. Although medical thoracoscopy is much less invasive than thoracotomy, complications can occur in a small number of cases; these are discussed and advice on prevention is provided. The concluding section examines the future of the field, covering developments such as ‘mini’ thoracoscopy, autofluorescence thoracoscopy, and flexi-rigid thoracoscopy.

Book excerpt: Thoracoscopy and biopsy have developed as indispensable tools to diagnose pleural, and sometimes lung, disease when simple clinical and laboratory methods of examination have failed to yield a diagnosis. Thoracoscopy is most often undertaken by surgeons, but may also be performed by trained physicians. It takes place in an endoscopy or operating room using simple sedation, local anaesthesia and non-disposable equipment, and is a useful, less invasive alternative to thoracotomy. Direct visualisation of the pleura with the thoracoscope achieves a diagnosis in approximately 95% of patients with tuberculosis or malignancy because biopsies are taken from areas seen to be macroscopically abnormal. Despite these advantages, the technique has until recently been vastly under-used in the UK when compared to practice in Europe and North America. This is now changing, however, with interest in the technique rekindled in parallel with rapid advances in equipment technology. The time is therefore right for the publication of this unique clinical guide to thoracoscopic practice. The book demonstrates the diagnostic and therapeutic value of this technique, which can be undertaken under local anaesthesia in a district general hospital. In addition to its use in the diagnosis of pleural disease, thoracoscopy has valuable therapeutic applications with the concomitant instillation of talc or other sclerosing agents into the pleural cavity for pleurodesis. Concise, practical and readable, this volume covers the indications for thoracoscopic investigation of the thoracic cavity, and describes and illustrates the techniques involved, their contraindications and associated hazards. Useful for MRCP candidates and specialist registrars in thoracic medicine seeking accreditation, it is also a handy aide-memoir for the practicing respiratory physician.

Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive, practical and timely review of all aspects of video-assisted, minimally invasive thoracic surgery, used to treat conditions of the lung, pleura, mediastinum, chest wall and diaphragm. Advances in technologies and instrumentation mean almost all thoracic surgeries may be performed by minimally invasive techniques rather than the traditional open surgeries. This book describes the thoracoscopic procedures in current specialist practice with discussion on indications, patient selection, surgical approaches, complications and clinical outcomes. The book opens with a summary of the rationale for minimally invasive surgery and when to convert to open surgery, as well as anaesthetic and peri-operative considerations, before covering the range of procedures organised by anatomical site. Numerous figures and diagrams describe every technique in detail and an authoritative, international team of contributors provides clinical experience and expert guidance.
