Summary

The primary goal of this study is to compare well-defined pleural effusion management success outcomes in patients with malignant or paramalignant pleural effusions who were treated with Indwelling pleural catheter insertion compared with those treated with siver nitrate pleurodesis. It is also to demonstrate the effectiveness of silver nitrate pleurodesis. It is also important to evaluate frequent adverse events of silver nitrate pleurodesis in patients with malignant pleural effusion

Conditions

  • Pleural Effusion, Malignant

Interventions

DRUG

Silver Nitrate

First, pleural fluid drainage will be done after administration of 5 cc of local anesthetic lidocain1% either by insertion of chest tube (26F or 28F ) or by using ultrasonography. Pleural fluid drainage will be terminated when the patient want to cough to make sure that the pleural cavity is empty, then the sclerosant material will be injected, patients will receive 0.5% silver nitrate diluted in 50 ml distilled water with 10 ml of local anaesthetic lidocaine 1%.

DEVICE

Indwelling Pleural Catheter

First , insert the wire into the pleural effusion at approximately the anterior axillary line. A 1-2 cm incision is made over the wire. A chest wall tunnel (5-8 cm in length) is created with a counter incision. The catheter is pulled through the tunnel and out next to the wire. After dilation of the wire tract with a Teflon "peel-away" sheath, the indwelling catheter is inserted into the chest. The counter incision is closed primarily, and the catheter is secured to the skin medially with a suture.
