Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of single-hole thoracoscopic surgery in the treatment of pulmonary nodule. Methods The clinical data of 76 patients with pulmonary diseases who underwent thoracoscopic surgery in the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Huangshan Shoukang Hospital, Anhui Province from March 2015 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to different operation methods, the patients were divided into single-arch thoracoscope surgery group (observation group) and single span thoracoscope surgery group (control group), with 38 cases in each group. The differences in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative chest diversion, postoperative extubation time, postoperative hospital stay, hospital cost, the incidence of postoperative complications, and postoperative pain scores were compared between the two groups. Results In the observation group, the operative time was (159.81±17.79)min, the intraoperative blood loss was (55.75 ±19.32) mL, the hospitalization cost was (1.97±0.43) thousand yuan, and the incidence of postoperative complications was 7.89%(3/38);there was no statistical significance in the differences when compared with control group(P>0.05). In the observation group, the postoperative pleural drainage from thoracic drainage tube was (62.49±5.64) mL, the extubation time was (2.80±0.55) d, and the postoperative hospitalization time was (6.52±0.50) d, all of which were lower than those in control group, and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusions Single-hole thoracoscopy is better than non-single-hole thoracoscopy in the treatment of pulmonary nodule. |
