Spontaneous pneumothorax (SP) is defined as the presence of air in the pleural cavity and remains a significant health problem. Secondary SP (SSP) is associated with underlying lung diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and interstitial lung disease (ILD), and is associated with poor outcomes. The current guidelines in the management of SSP have not been updated since the last decade; therefore, new protocols focused on the management of SSP should be evaluated. We present two cases of patients admitted with SSP who were treated conservatively due to haemodynamic stability. In both cases, the pneumothoraces resolved without further complications.
自发性气胸(SP)被定义为胸膜腔内存在气体,仍然是一个严重的健康问题。继发性SP(SSP)与潜在的肺部疾病相关,如囊性纤维化、慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)和间质性肺疾病(ILD),并且与不良预后相关。自上一个十年以来,SSP管理的现行指南尚未更新;因此,应评估专注于SSP管理的新方案。我们报告两例因血流动力学稳定而接受保守治疗的SSP入院患者。在这两例病例中,气胸均得以解决,未出现进一步并发症。
