Observational Study of Curative Effects Between Complete Video‐Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery and Conservative Treatment for Multiple Rib Fractures in Non‐Frail Chests
In treating MRFs, c-VATS with internal fixation resulted in significant improvements in lung function, shorter pain duration, and a lower rate of fracture malunion. c-VATS with internal fixation represents a feasible, safe, and minimally invasive surgical approach for the treatment of MRFs, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
