OBJECTIVES: To report our results of patients undergoing thoracoabdominal radical nephrectomy without intraoperative placement of a thoracostomy tube. It has been routine in our hospital to not place a thoracostomy tube in patients undergoing thoracoabdominal radical nephrectomy since 1988.
METHODS: We conducted a retrospective review of 47 thoracoabdominal radical nephrectomies performed from January 1988 through November 1998 at our institution. Of the 47 patients, 39 did not have a thoracostomy tube placed intraoperatively; the other 8 patients did. The development of all postoperative complications, length of hospital stay, and hospital charges were noted.
RESULTS: No postoperative mortality was noted in our study. Of the 47 patients in the study, 20 patients had a total of 29 complications. The overall number of complications was not increased in the group without a thoracostomy tube compared with the group with a thoracostomy tube (P = 0.104). No patient treated without a thoracostomy tube required subsequent placement of a tube for persistent pneumothorax. The mean length of hospital stay in patients with a thoracostomy tube after radical nephrectomy was 9.14 +/- 2.65 days; in patients without a thoracostomy tube, the mean length of stay was 7.07 +/- 3.97 days (P = 0.071).
CONCLUSIONS: In patients without parietal pleural injury, thoracoabdominal radical nephrectomy without the placement of a thoracostomy tube can be performed safely and effectively, with a low risk of postoperative complications and a decrease in the overall hospital stay and hospital charges.
