Abstract

The aim is to improve the results of minimally invasive surgical treatment of patients with tuberculous pleural empyema.

Material and Methods. A retrospective analysis of 685 cases of pleural tuberculosis in patients who underwent inpatient treatment in the Phthisiosurgical Unit of the Ternopil Regional TB Dispensary was conducted in the last 10 years. Necessary clinical, laboratory, and instrumental studies, including radiological and immunological examination methods, were performed for all patients.

Results and Discussion. The first in Ukraine analysis of the results of surgical treatment of patients with combined forms of pleural TB empyema with the use of standard diagnostic and surgical techniques is presented. The morphological features of stage, localization and diagnostics of pleural TB are analyzed depending on the gender, age, beginning, course and prevalence of suppuration. It is shown leading effect of pleural tuberculosis on the surgical treatment of patients with pleural TB empyema and ways will the improved surgical techniques for minimally invasive thoracic surgery (VTS, VATS) treatment.

Conclusions. The leading influence of the type of tuberculous lesion of the pleura on the operative treatment of patients with tuberculous pleural empyema and the ways of improvement of surgical methods to the minimally invasive thoracosurgical treatment are shown.
