摘要

Objectives : Thoracic empyema is characterized by the collection of infected fluid/pus in the pleural space. A multitude of etiologies and surgical approaches exist. The current study aims to assess outcomes in elderly and young patients undergoing surgery for thoracic empyema. Methods : A retrospective comparative analysis was undertaken comparing outcomes in elderly and young patients undergoing surgery with an established diagnosis of empyema. Two groups were generated for comparison 1 ) patients older than 65 and 2 ) patients younger than 65. Demographics, comorbidities, post-operative complications, surgical approach and mortalities were compared between groups. Results : 526 patients underwent surgery for empyema during the study period (1993 - 2016). Group A ( 65) comprised 108 patients. With respect to group A, the median age at surgery was 45.30 years. Median post-operative stay was 10.50 days (9.10 vs . 11.90 in VATS and open respectively). 30-day mortality in group A was 1.90% (3.30% vs . 0.47% in VATS and open respectively). Group B comprised 108 patients (median age 72.70 years). Median post-operative stay was 14.40 days (11.20 vs . 17.8, VATS vs . open, p = 0.001). Overall 30-day mortality was 8.30 % (7.5% vs . 9% in VATS and open respectively, p = 0.03). Conclusions : The associated mortality and in-patient stay was significantly greater in elderly cohorts when compared to younger. Minimal access approaches confer a number of advantages in elderly patients including shorter hospital stay and reduced mortality.
