Brief summary
Small catheter drainage with chest tube after uniport Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Procedures
Detailed description
Traditionally an Intercostal Tube is applied intraoperative following VATS procedures to drain the remaining pneumothorax and residual effusion , some of the residual effusion can't drain by intercostal tube which lead to prolonged hospital stay hypothesis that putting an additional small catheter drainage at the most depended part of hemithoracic early removal of chest tube without add more pain or hospital stay to the patient.
Interventions
