    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonology
    • Medical Devices
    • Surgical Instrumentation

    Context:

    • Tuberculous caverns pose a significant challenge in treating pulmonary tuberculosis.
    • Accurate localization of cavitary lesions is crucial for effective intervention.
    • Current methods for transthoracic puncture may lack precise intra-cavitary confirmation.

    Purpose:

    • To introduce a novel photo-indicator trochar for transthoracic puncture of tuberculous caverns.
    • To describe the design and function of the trochar-indicator.
    • To highlight its utility in the management of cavitary tuberculosis.

    Summary:

    • A trochar equipped with a photo-indicator is recommended for transthoracic puncture of tuberculous caverns.
    • Its simple design allows surgeons to precisely identify when the trochar tip enters the cavern.
