NCT00767962

Brief Summary

Treatment of recurrent primary spontaneous pneumothorax remains controversial and many therapeutic options exist. The aim of this study is to compare pleural symphysis by talc poudrage during medical thoracoscopy and surgical management combining pleural abrasion and blebs or bullae resection for treatment of recurrent primary spontaneous pneumothorax.
