Spontaneous pneumothorax, whether primary or secondary, may occur in patients with or without a history of pneumonic disease.
From 1992 to 2002, we treated 275 patients, 230 male and 45 female, in the department of Thoracic Surgery of the General Hospital of Nikaia-Piraeus. In this study the Authors report the data concerning the frequency correlated with age, sex, causes, symptoms, as well as the ways of treatment, in order to compare them and their results with those recorded in Greek and international literature.
It is made obvious by our material that only approximately 10% of patients suffering from spontaneous pneumothorax need surgery (thoracotomy), while the remaining patients can be managed with closed thoracic drainage or conservative treatment and monitoring.
自发性气胸，无论原发性还是继发性，均可发生于有或无肺部疾病史的患者。
1992年至2002年，我们在尼凯亚-比雷埃夫斯综合医院胸外科治疗了275例患者，其中男性230例，女性45例。在本研究中，作者报告了与年龄、性别、病因、症状以及治疗方式相关的频率数据，以便将其及其结果与希腊和国际文献中记录的数据进行比较。
我们的资料表明，仅有约10%的自发性气胸患者需要手术（开胸手术），而其余患者可通过胸腔闭式引流或保守治疗及监测进行处理。
