What are the dangers of minimally invasive surgery on the upper lobe of the right lung?

Minimally invasive surgery of the upper lobe of the right lung may present dangers such as numbness in the wound, organ damage, pleural adhesions, postoperative air leakage and pleural effusion.
1. Numbness of the wound: If the intercostal nerve is damaged during minimally invasive surgery of the upper lobe of the right lung, it may lead to the danger of numbness of the wound, and this condition is also a common complication.
2. Organ damage: there is a higher risk of injury to nerves, blood vessels and organs around the lungs, which should be avoided as much as possible during the surgery.
3. Pleural adhesion: As the pleural cavity is opened by the surgery, the operation on the lungs may affect the pleural adhesion.
4. Postoperative air leakage: If the drainage tube needs to be used after the operation, if the drainage tube is not closed tightly, it may cause postoperative air leakage, and in serious cases, it may produce pneumothorax.
5. Pleural effusion: postoperative blood leakage may accumulate in the chest cavity to form pleural effusion.
Surgery has certain complications, it is recommended that patients go to regular hospitals for minimally invasive surgery of the upper lobe of the right lung, follow the precautions given by the doctor before and after the surgery, and inform the doctor in time if they feel unwell after the surgery.
