A minimal invasive approach in pleural effusions: cystofix catheter

Year 2016, Volume: 7 Issue: 1, 5 - 9, 24.02.2016

Abstract

Aim: Recently, catheters with small diameter are getting popularity in the treatment of pleural effusions. In this study, patients with cystofix catheter mounted for pleural effusion drainage were evaluated in terms of age, gender, underlying pathology, efficacy of treatment and complications.

Material and Methods: Data of the 59 patients treated with cystofix catheter due to pleural effusion were evaluated retrospectively. 14 F catheter was applied under local anesthesia from the 7th or the 8th intercostal space dorsal axillary line to patients with massive pleural effusion.

Results: The average age was 65.9 ± 13.9 and 37 (62.7%) of patients were male. 11 (18.6%) of the cases were having malign and 48 (81.4%) were having benign etiologies. Etiologic reasons were congestive right heart failure in 30 (50.8%) cases, parapneumonic effusion in 14 (23.7%) cases and primary bronchial carcinoma in 6 (10.2%) cases.

Conclusion: The results obtained from this study suggested that cystofix catheter can be used as an alternative minimal invasive technique in benign and malign effusion drainage, because of its small diameter, being easily available and applicable, avoiding clogging and being appropriate for pleurodesis.

Plevral effüzyonlarda minimal invaziv bir yaklaşım: sistofiks kateter

Year 2016, Volume: 7 Issue: 1, 5 - 9, 24.02.2016

Abstract

Amaç: Günümüzde plevral effüzyon tedavisinde küçük çaplı katater kullanımı daha popüler bir uygulama haline gelmiştir. Bu çalışmada plevral effüzyon drenajı için sistofix katater takılmış hastalar yaş, cinsiyet, altta yatan patoloji, tedavi etkinliği ve komplikasyonlar açısından değerlendirildi.

Gereç ve Yöntemler: Plevral effüzyon nedeniyle sistofix kataterle tedavi edilen 59 hastanın verileri retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. Masif plevral effüzyonlu hastalara lokal anestezi altında arka axiller hat 7. veya 8. interkostal aralıktan 14 F katater uygulandı.

Bulgular: Hastaların ortalama yaşı 65,9 ± 13,9 ve 37’si (%62,7) erkek idi. Vakaların etiyolojilerinin 11’i (%86) malign ve 48’i (%81,4) benign idi. Etiyolojik nedenler 30’unda (%50,8) konjestif sağ kalp yetmezliği, 14’ünde (%23,7) parapnömonik effüzyon ve 6’sında (%10,2) primer bronş kanseri idi.

Sonuçlar: Elde edilen bulgular, sistofix kataterin, küçük çaplı olması, kolay elde edilebilir ve uygulanabilir olması, tıkanmaması ve plöredez için uygun olmasından dolayı, benign ve malign effüzyon drenajında alternatif minimal invaziv bir teknik olduğunu desteklemektedir.
