Abstract Background The present descriptive study shares the overall experience of treating all these patients where different surgical process was adopted depending on the treatment required after carefully evaluating the risk factors and comorbidities. Methods The present study was conducted at the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Choray Hospital, Vietnam between the period of 2010 to 2020. We have treated 95 patients altogether in this duration. Results We were able to save most of the patients by applying thoracotomy and thoracic irrigation for most of the patients based on the observed indications that were identified immediately after the compulsory standard cervicotomy. The indication for thoracic interference was considered when the infection was deeply spread into the mediastinum and cannot get out through cervicotomy, although the most effective method of drainage was applied. Conclusion Our statistical investigation of the patient data suggested the possible association and influence of comorbidity such as diabetes. Therefore, we recommend that in specific cases thoracotomy along with thoracic irrigation and repetitive surgical draining could be a better option to reduce the infection and the mortality rate. Trial registration Retrospectively registered. |
