Abstract

Purpose: In this study, iatrogenic pneumothorax reasons developing in the cases were studied and treatment methods were compared.Material and Methods: From January 1995 to October 2007, we treated 523 patients with pneumothorax. Sixty-two of them were found to have iatrogenic pneumothorax. Patients' age, gender, primary diagnoses, etiology of iatrogenic pneumothorax, time of drainage and treatment results were analyzed.Results: Mean age of the 62 patients (28 women, 34 men) was 45 ± 2,4 (range: 5–78 years). Treatment choices for these cases were as follows, observation with nasal oxygen for 9, simple aspiration for 3, chest tube application for 45, surgery for 5 patients. Seven patients (11.29%) died because of primary pathologies.Conclusion: It is often encountered with iatrogenic pneumothorax cases in paralel to the increase in the diagnostic and therapeutic invasive procedures. In this study, clinical features, treatments and treatment results of the cases with iatrogenic pneumothorax were discussed with the literature. It was concluded that this important complication should not be ruled out and diagnosed and treated in a short time. It was also concluded that it is necessary to attach importance to the educational processes of the physicians who will apply these procedures.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada olgularda gelişen iatrojenik pnömotoraks nedenlerinin araştırılması ve uygulanan tedavi yöntemlerinin karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Ocak 1995- Ekim 2007 döneminde kliniğimizde pnömotoraks tanısı ile tedavi edilen 523 olgunun 62'sinde iyatrojenik pnömotoraks saptandı. Olgular; yaş, cinsiyet, primer tanı, iyatrojenik travma nedeni, drenaj süresi ve tedavi sonuçları ile analiz edildi.Bulgular: Olguların 28'i kadın, 34'ü erkek ve ortalama yaşları 45±2,4 yıl olarak bulundu (yaş aralığı:5 – 78 yıl). Tedavi yöntemi 9 olguda nazal oksijen ile gözlem, 3 olguda basit aspirasyon, 45 olguda göğüs tüpü, 5 olguda cerrahi tedavi idi. Yedi olguda (%11,29) primer patolojilerine bağlı olarak pnömotoraks dışı nedenlerle mortalite izlendi.Sonuç: Tanı veya tedavi amaçlı invaziv girişimlerin artmasına paralel olarak iyatrojenik pnömotorakslı olgulara sıklıkla rastlanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada iatrojenik pnömotoraks gelişen olgularımızın klinik özellikleri, tedavisi ve sonuçları literatür eşliğinde tartışılmış ve bu önemli komplikasyonun göz ardı edilmeyerek kısa zamanda tanı konulup tedavi edilmesinin zorunlu olduğu ve invaziv girişimleri uygulayacak hekimlerin tecrübelerini artıracak eğitim süreçlerine önem verilmesi gerektiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
