We evaluated the validity of the SOFT COAG electrosurgical output system for the treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax. From April 2008 to May 2010, we compared 64 patients who had undergone bullae resection using endoscopic linear staplers, to 20 patients subjected to electroablation of the bullae using the SOFT COAG output system. There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in terms of operation time, bleeding, and mean duration of postoperative chest tube drainage. Postoperative recurrence was apparent in 3 cases for the linear stapler, and in 2 cases for SOFT COAG. Electroablation using the SOFT COAG output system was suggested to be valid for treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax.
我们评估了SOFT COAG电外科输出系统治疗自发性气胸的有效性。2008年4月至2010年5月,我们将64例使用内镜直线缝合器进行肺大疱切除术的患者与20例使用SOFT COAG输出系统进行肺大疱电消融术的患者进行了比较。两组在手术时间、出血量和术后胸腔引流管平均留置时间方面无显著差异。直线缝合器组术后复发3例,SOFT COAG组术后复发2例。提示使用SOFT COAG输出系统进行电消融术治疗自发性气胸有效。
