Intercostal nerves cryoanalgesia and open thoracotomy for major lung resection: evaluation of perioperative outcomes and medico-economic analysis
Intercostal nerves cryoanalgesia during thoracotomy is associated with reduced postoperative and respiratory complications and a shorter ICU stay, while pain levels remain similar. These benefits may improve patient outcomes and reduce ICU burden, suggesting a medico-economic benefit for cryoanalgesia in thoracic surgery.
