ObjectiveTo discuss the possibility and safety of video-assisted thoracoscope surgery for pulmonary aspergilloma. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 39 patients with pulmonary aspergilloma in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital between June 2009 and May 2014. The patients were divided into two groups according to their operation method including a conventional thoracotomy surgery group (open group, n=11) and a video-assisted thoracoscope pneumonectomy group (VATS group, n=28). There were 8 male patients and 3 female patients with age of 29-64 (50.7±9.7) years in the open group. There were 13 male patients and 15 female patients with age of 20-75 (55.4±15.3) years in the VATS group. We compared clinical effectiveness between the two groups. ResultsThe operations of all patients were performed successfully. There were statistical differences between the two groups in the average length of operative time (P=0.001), the loss of intraoperative blood (P=0.005), and the score of pain (P=0.001). There was no statistical difference in lead flow of postoperative chest (P>0.05) and the time of hospitalization (P>0.05). ConclusionVideo-assisted thoracoscope surgery in the treatment of pulmonary aspergilloma could be feasible, safe, and effective based on our study. It is worth of clinical application and popularization．
