Thoracic insufficiency syndrome: Approaches to assessment and management
Paediatric Respiratory Reviews(2022)
摘要
Thoracic insufficiency syndrome (TIS) was described in 2003 as the inability of the thorax to support normal respiration or lung growth. TIS includes a broad and disparate group of typically degenerative thoracospinal conditions. Although TIS arises due to a heterogeneous group of disorders and thus its incidence is not well quantified, general approaches to management and treatment exist. Evolving imaging techniques and measurements of health-related quality of life augment tests of pulmonary function to quantify disease burden, longitudinally and pre- and post-intervention. Intervention is primarily via growth-sparing surgery, for which several device options exist, to preserve vertical growth prior to a definitive spinal fusion at skeletal maturity.
