Resumen

Se revisan 27 casos de neumotorax espontáneo, haciendo un estudio clínico de factores desencadenantes, localización, tipos, recidivas, complicaciones espontáneas y terapéuticas, etc., e insistiendo en la respuesta de los pacientes frente a las diferentes activudes terapéuticas.

Se concluye la necesidad de una actitud más intervencionista, frente a los casos de neumotorax espontáneo en sujeros jóvenes y consecuentes a ruptura de bullas subpleurales, citándose los resultados obtenidos con un nuevo proceder quirúrgico, que por su falta de complicaciones, tanto inmediatas como tardías, y su seguridad respecto a recidivas, creemos debe ser prodigado en mayor número de casos.
