Summary

Traditional drainage for uniportal video assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is a routine method, usually with one or two chest tubes at intercostal incisions, but postoperative pain due to the chest tube and unsatisfied drainage effect was noted.

In this study, the investigators are going to explore whether a prophylactic air-extraction catheter combined with chest tube drainage may not increase complications in uniportal VATS for upper lung lobectomy. The patients would be assigned to two arms, one with a prophylactic air-extraction catheter combined with chest tube, and another with two chest tubes, and the effect of the combined drainage strategy will be evaluated.

Conditions

  • Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

Interventions

PROCEDURE

prophylactic air-extraction catheter drainage

This is a kind of venous catheter commonly used in clinic. It may bring less pain after being inserted into the chest, with an equivalent drainage effect with traditional thick drainage tube from our experience, especially in the aspect of gas drainage effect.
