Animal experiment of medical thoracoscopic splanchnotomy
Objective To explore the feasibility of medical thoracoscopic splanchnotomy through animal experiments.Methods Four experimental pigs were given intravenous anesthesia combined with intercostal nerve block anesthesia,and preserved the spontaneous breathing state.Splanchnotomy was performed by medical thoracoscope.The operation time,blood loss,complications and technical problems were recorded.Results Medical thoracoscopic splanchnotomy was successfully performed in 4 pigs.There were no complications such as intraoperative hemorrhage,organ injury and death.Conclusion The animal experiment of medical thoracoscopic splanchnotomy is feasible,Which can provide a re-search basis for the clinical application of medical thoracoscopic splanchnotomy in the treatment of epigastric cancer pain.
