Diagnostic yield of medical thoracoscopy in cases of undiagnosed pleural effusion in Kobri El-Kobba Military Hospital
Background: Recurrent and persistent pleural exudates are common in clinical practice, and in a large number of patients, thoracocentesis and blind pleural biopsy procedures do not provide a definitive diagnosis. In the Western world, the majority of these exudates are malignant. Thoracoscopy today...

520 | |a Background: Recurrent and persistent pleural exudates are common in clinical practice, and in a large number of patients, thoracocentesis and blind pleural biopsy procedures do not provide a definitive diagnosis. In the Western world, the majority of these exudates are malignant. Thoracoscopy today remains the gold standard technique in providing diagnosis and management in these cases. Objectives: Diagnostic yield of medical thoracoscopy was evaluated in cases of undiagnosed pleural effusion. Patients and methods: Semi flexible medical thoracoscopy was done for 40 patients in the period between March 2010 and October 2012 in Kobri El-Kobba Military chest Hospital through double points of entry. Results: Medical thoracoscopy gave a definitive diagnosis in 38 out of 40 patients with diagnostic yield 95%. Malignancy was diagnosed in 28 patients (70%), one patient was diagnosed as empyema (2.5%), tuberculosis was found in 9 patients (22.5%), and it was non diagnostic in 2 patients (5%). The post-thoracoscopic complications in the studied group have occurred only in 4 patients (10%). Conclusion: Medical thoracoscopy is a valuable tool in the diagnosis of undiagnosed exudative pleural effusion. It is a simple and safe method with high diagnostic yield and with low complication rates. | ||

Diagnostic yield of medical thoracoscopy in cases of undiagnosed pleural effusion in Kobri El-Kobba Military Hospital |
abstract |
Background: Recurrent and persistent pleural exudates are common in clinical practice, and in a large number of patients, thoracocentesis and blind pleural biopsy procedures do not provide a definitive diagnosis. In the Western world, the majority of these exudates are malignant. Thoracoscopy today remains the gold standard technique in providing diagnosis and management in these cases. Objectives: Diagnostic yield of medical thoracoscopy was evaluated in cases of undiagnosed pleural effusion. Patients and methods: Semi flexible medical thoracoscopy was done for 40 patients in the period between March 2010 and October 2012 in Kobri El-Kobba Military chest Hospital through double points of entry. Results: Medical thoracoscopy gave a definitive diagnosis in 38 out of 40 patients with diagnostic yield 95%. Malignancy was diagnosed in 28 patients (70%), one patient was diagnosed as empyema (2.5%), tuberculosis was found in 9 patients (22.5%), and it was non diagnostic in 2 patients (5%). The post-thoracoscopic complications in the studied group have occurred only in 4 patients (10%). Conclusion: Medical thoracoscopy is a valuable tool in the diagnosis of undiagnosed exudative pleural effusion. It is a simple and safe method with high diagnostic yield and with low complication rates. |

In the Western world, the majority of these exudates are malignant. Thoracoscopy today remains the gold standard technique in providing diagnosis and management in these cases. Objectives: Diagnostic yield of medical thoracoscopy was evaluated in cases of undiagnosed pleural effusion. Patients and methods: Semi flexible medical thoracoscopy was done for 40 patients in the period between March 2010 and October 2012 in Kobri El-Kobba Military chest Hospital through double points of entry. Results: Medical thoracoscopy gave a definitive diagnosis in 38 out of 40 patients with diagnostic yield 95%. Malignancy was diagnosed in 28 patients (70%), one patient was diagnosed as empyema (2.5%), tuberculosis was found in 9 patients (22.5%), and it was non diagnostic in 2 patients (5%). The post-thoracoscopic complications in the studied group have occurred only in 4 patients (10%). Conclusion: Medical thoracoscopy is a valuable tool in the diagnosis of undiagnosed exudative pleural effusion. It is a simple and safe method with high diagnostic yield and with low complication rates.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Pleural effusion</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Thoracoscopy</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">High diagnostic yield</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Diseases of the respiratory system</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Gehan M.
