Brief Summary:
Thoracic surgeons have developed a thoracoscopic procedure which is less intrusive method allows complete evacuation and washing of the debris from the pleural cavity. This approach may also have the benefit of less invasive maneuver, a shorter hospital stay and a decreased rate of postoperative complications.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of the video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) approach in comparison with thoracotomy in management of empyema in pediatric patients.
