  • nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooo I had this fuck Pneumothorax 4 times and since this morning i feel I'M GONNA HAVE IT AGAIN ):

  • i had it once , had a chest tube in me for a couple of days ... guess what , i just got it back again

  • had this happen to me and lived through it, thats what u get for living on the edge

  • Imma be honest, this made me wanna cry

  • this could happen to anybody but in tall thin males mostly.

  • Looks like spontaneous pnuemothorax... I did see the "blebs" at 0:38

  • eaten aliveee.. :D :D

  • This is worse than a horror movie.

  • WTF CRAZY IS THAT PART OF HIS LUNG THEY CUT LOOKS LIKE THEYRE JUST CASUING MORE HELL ON TOP OF HELL

  • What the heck is happening???

  • This was done on me this weekend.....

  • @CombatArchery ;-)--->

  • @CombatArchery Well now you know exactly what happened to you lol!

  • Why did they tear off the skin on the inner wall of the rib cage and spray it with water? This looks horrible even if they can't feel anything. Imagine when the anesthesia wears off. How does this have anything to do with a pneumothorax? Other than the bubbles/pockets of air on the lungs.

  • @DAROMSninja it is not skin. it is a form of membrane that allows the lung to easily slip in to the pleural cavity. removing this membrane will cause the lung and pleural cavity to become irritated. this will cause a shallow wound and when it heals the lung will merge together with the pleural cavity hence preventing another pneumothorax. I have had this surgery and i am happy to say that i didnt hurt a bit, the spinal anesthesia i got worked exellent.

  • @thegr8M Well when I said skin I didn't literally mean skin. Sure it's a membrane. It's still flesh being torn off. I read that the whole purpose for this was to get the lung to stick to the wall of the rib cage so that the lung doesn't collapse. If this is true than this method is so brain dead it makes me question modern medical practices. Yes that is so smart. Destroying the inner wall of a rib cage to get a lung to stick. Instead of using some sort of medical adhesive or some other means.

  • @DAROMSninja "perminent" medical adhesives do not exist. Actually, it is impossible to exist. The human body's immune system will attack and attempt to remove it: This will do more harm then good. The platelets is the body's own naturnal adhesive. What you have mentioned about medical practices is a reality. Almost nothing is pretty in the medical world. Sometimes, you must do what works to save someones life.

  • @DAROMSninja i will make it really easy for you to understand WHY what you said doesn't work... go to the Library and look up Human Physiology by Silverthorn, Ch. 17, and read about the function of the lung and it's anatomy it's very simple and very interesting and you will understand: why the "sticking" of the lung to the thoracic wall is important, read about the pleura, read about positive and negative pressures and read about the lungs natural state (which is to be DEFLATED not INFLATED).

  • I would love to say this surgery is not at all painfull but I know when I came to I was in crazy pain. It took the nurses an hour and a half to get my pain under control. But by the next morning I just felt sore so if anybody watching this is terrified don't be it's way more gruesome than it feels.

  • Wait, I don't understand. Why did they cut off that piece?

  • this is awesome thank you so much for this upload! I am a Respiratory student and i have to do a research paper as well as a presentation over pneumothorax and subcutaneous emphysema, this will be awesome to include. I will be include this in my bibliography! thank you!

  • The so-called yellow shit is your FAT.

  • whats the yellow shit

  • @alleycat7981 Mustard.

  • @PlasticSmile97 as in the stuff ppl put on theyre hotdogs mustard? O_O

  • allmost a year ago i had that, but they just put a needle, a huge needle, trough my ribs and pulled the air out. They told when ive left the hospital that it will probably happen again and they would have to do THIS to me, so now after i saw this, im very scared i thought it would be just a little operation but this looks different!! why they put wather on the lung? where does the wather go? where comes all that Blood from ? thanks for scaring the shit outta me damn!

  • @TheTeenageMutant You would only have this procedure if your doctors think there's a high chance that the pneumothorax will recur. This operation is done while you are completely asleep, and the aim is to staple the areas of the lung where air is getting in, 1:30. They deliberately "bleed" the chest wall @ 2:40 so that when it heals, the lungs stick to it and stay open instead of collapsing (pleurodesis). The water is to clean the blood so the surgeon can see, it is sucked back out immediately.

  • @streamr89

    Thanks for the play by play. I was sitting here wondering why the heck they were ripping the chest wall....

  • I know I'm probably gonna sound like an idiot for aski ng this but,

    What in the world is that?!?! Is this that thing that started or whatever in Waverly Hills Sanatoriuom? Like, is this inside the human body? If so where in the world? In the cheast? I thought I saw ribs but I'm clue-less.

    Yeah, I know I probably sound like a complete retard for asking. :|

  • @ZiraBreyerfan4life Yes, it's inside the chest and yes, those were ribs you saw.

  • @TheAfterIife Ahhh okay. Thanks.

  • @codydevil I'm glad to hear that you came through this with no problems and that your feeling better :) I'm waiting for a call from the hospital to get this done! a few months ago they put a needle in my chest and pulled out what ever air was in there.... i'm starting to get some pains still im afraid its going to come back before they call me to the hospital!!

  • what ... get it again ?? really ... dont scare me man ...

    yes ... it was paining while breathing ... soo first i had a testube process ... then they did some Xrays.. then they doo this process... and now one year have been passed... and em ohk now ..
