About Pneumothorax

Pneumothorax, commonly known as a collapsed lung, is a condition where air leaks into the space between the lung and the chest wall. This can result in a partial or complete collapse of the lung, leading to difficulty in breathing and discomfort.

What Causes Pneumothorax?

Pneumothorax can occur spontaneously or as a result of trauma, lung disease, or medical procedures. Spontaneous pneumothorax can happen without any apparent cause, while traumatic pneumothorax is usually caused by an injury or accident.

Symptoms of Pneumothorax

The symptoms of pneumothorax vary depending on the severity and underlying cause. Common symptoms include sudden chest pain, shortness of breath, rapid breathing, shallow breathing, decreased breath sounds on one side of the chest, and cyanosis (bluish color of the lips or nails).

Treating Pneumothorax at Neumark Surgery

When it comes to pneumothorax treatment in Singapore, Neumark Surgery stands at the forefront. Our team of skilled doctors and plastic surgeons are experienced in diagnosing and treating pneumothorax using the latest techniques and advanced medical equipment.

Diagnosis

At Neumark Surgery, we employ a comprehensive approach to diagnose pneumothorax. Our medical experts utilize a variety of diagnostic tools, including chest X-rays, computed tomography (CT) scans, and ultrasound, to accurately assess the condition and determine the most appropriate treatment plan.

Treatment Options

When it comes to treating pneumothorax, the specific approach depends on factors such as the severity of the condition, the patient's overall health, and the underlying cause. In some cases, small pneumothoraces may resolve on their own without intervention. However, larger or recurring pneumothoraces may require medical intervention.

1. Observation

In certain cases, where a pneumothorax is small and the patient does not exhibit severe symptoms, our experienced doctors may recommend a period of observation. During this time, the patient's condition is closely monitored, and if necessary, appropriate interventions are initiated promptly.

2. Chest Tube Insertion

If the pneumothorax is moderate to large, or if it causes significant symptoms and discomfort, our skilled surgeons may perform a chest tube insertion. This procedure involves the placement of a flexible tube into the chest cavity to drain the excess air, allowing the lung to re-expand.

3. Needle Aspiration

In certain cases, where the pneumothorax is small and causes minimal symptoms, we may opt for needle aspiration. This procedure involves the insertion of a needle into the chest to remove the air, promoting lung re-expansion.

4. Surgical Intervention

In severe or recurrent cases of pneumothorax, surgical intervention may be necessary. Our experienced plastic surgeons specialize in minimally invasive surgical techniques, such as video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), to repair and prevent future episodes of pneumothorax.

Recovery and Follow-Up Care

At Neumark Surgery, we prioritize the complete well-being of our patients. Following pneumothorax treatment, our dedicated medical team provides comprehensive post-operative care and ensures proper recovery. We schedule regular follow-up appointments to monitor progress and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan.
