摘要：
Initial experience of thoracoscopic bullectomy and tetracycline pleurodesis for the treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax is reported. Thirty-three out of 49 patients admitted with spontaneous pneumothorax were suitable for treatment with this minimally invasive method. This series demonstrates that this surgical management offers early discharge and return to normal activities with excellent medium-term results, despite the three early failures. It is felt that with increased experience in thoracoscopy and improved selection of patients, thoracoscopic bullectomy and pleurodesis will become the treatment of choice for primary spontaneous pneumothorax.
