Common Paediatric Thoracic Procedures
Thoracotomy for Empyema
Collection of pus in the pleural cavity around the lungs. When antibiotics and drainage do not resolve the condition, thoracotomy is performed to remove the infection and improve lung function.
Decortication Surgery
Surgical procedure to remove a thickened layer of tissue that may form around the lungs as a result of infection. This helps to restore proper lung function and reduce respiratory complications.
Congenital Lung Abnormalities (CLE)
Birth defects affecting lung development (CCAM, sequestration, BPFM). Thoracotomy is required to remove the abnormal lung tissue and restore normal, healthy lung function.
