Thoracotomy
surgical incision of the chest wall.

SURGICAL ANATOMYThe thoracic cavity of dogs n cats are compressed laterally so greatest dimension is DV.

SURGICAL APPROACHES
Intercostal Thoracotomy
Rib Resection Thoracotomy
Median Sternotomy
Transsternal Thoracotomy
![Page 15: Surgical Approaches to thorax in small animals](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a73cf01a28abeb258b47f4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Special Considerations: In animals with respiratory dysfunction, oxygen may be
administered.
All animals with open chest cavities require intermittent positive pressure ventilation (including those with diaphragmatic hernias).
High ventilatory pressures should be avoided in patients with chronically collapsed lung lobes, pneumonia.
Thoracotomy procedures often cause substantial pain, and postoperative analgesic therapy is indicated.

Intercostal Thoracotomy
Standard approach
Excellent access to immediate structures
Complications – uncommon, if airtight closure
3rd to 10th ICS
Lateral radiograph

Thoracostomy Tube PlacementMake an incision overthe dorsal third of the intercostalspace.
Tunnel the tube withtrocar - tipped stylet cranioventrally
![Page 20: Surgical Approaches to thorax in small animals](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a73cf01a28abeb258b47f4/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Tilt the tube perpendicularto the thoracic wall, Hit the end of the tubeto pop it through the intercostal spaceand pleura
![Page 21: Surgical Approaches to thorax in small animals](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a73cf01a28abeb258b47f4/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
advance the tubecranially into the thorax
![Page 22: Surgical Approaches to thorax in small animals](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a73cf01a28abeb258b47f4/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Clamp the tube once thestylet is partially retracted
Adjust the tube position sothat the tip is at the level of the secondintercostal space before securing it inplace.
