Medical pleuroscopy (MP) offers a safe and minimally invasive tool for interventional pulmonologists. It allows diagnosis of unexplained effusion, while at the same time allowing drainage and pleurodesis. It can also help in the diagnosis of diffuse interstitial disease or associated peripheral lung abnormality in the presence of effusion. It can have a therapeutic role in pneumothorax and hyperhidrosis or chronic pancreatic pain. This article reviews the technical aspects and range of applications of MP.
医学胸腔镜检查(MP)为介入性肺病学家提供了一种安全且微创的工具。它不仅可以用于诊断原因不明的胸腔积液,还可以同时进行引流和胸膜固定术。在存在胸腔积液的情况下,它还可以帮助诊断弥漫性间质性疾病或相关的外周肺异常。它在气胸、多汗症或慢性胰腺痛的治疗中也可以发挥作用。本文回顾了 MP 的技术方面和应用范围。
