Decortication of Empyema | Yashoda Hospitals Hyderabad

Empyema is a serious and potentially life-threatening condition that occurs when pus accumulates in the pleural cavity, which is the space between the lungs and the chest wall. If left untreated, empyema can lead to serious complications, such as sepsis, respiratory failure, and even death.
Decortication of empyema is a surgical procedure that involves removing the thick layer of scar tissue that has formed around the lung due to the empyema. This scar tissue can make it difficult for the lung to expand properly and can cause persistent respiratory symptoms, such as shortness of breath and chest pain.
Immediately after the surgery, patients may experience pain, discomfort, and difficulty breathing, which can be managed with pain medications and breathing exercises. Patients may also need to use a chest tube for several days to help drain any remaining fluid or pus from the pleural cavity.
Mrs. Vaishali Panchal from Vadodara underwent Decortication of Empyema surgery at Yashoda Hospitals, Hyderabad, under the supervision of Dr. Viswesvaran Balasubramanian, Consultant Interventional Pulmonology and Sleep Medicine.
