Uniportal VATS Decortication for Empyema | Yashoda Hospitals Hyderabad

Empyema is a condition characterized by the accumulation of pus in the pleural cavity, the space between the lungs and the chest wall. It is often caused by bacterial infections, most commonly due to pneumonia. Symptoms may include fever, cough, chest pain, difficulty breathing, and general malaise. Diagnosis typically involves physical examination, chest X-rays or CT scans, and sometimes laboratory tests of the pleural fluid obtained through a procedure called thoracentesis. Prompt treatment is essential to prevent complications and promote recovery. Uniportal VATS (Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery) Decortication is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat empyema by removing the thickened, infected tissue (decortication) from the surface of the lung and inner chest wall. This procedure is performed through a single small incision, allowing for less postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays, and quicker recovery compared to traditional open surgery. It provides direct visualization of the affected area using a camera and specialized instruments inserted through the incision, enabling precise removal of the infected tissue. Uniportal VATS decortication is often recommended when antibiotics or less invasive treatments fail to resolve the empyema or when there is significant lung involvement. It aims to alleviate symptoms, improve lung function, and promote healing.
