    Summary

    A new classification for pathologic pneumothorax (PP) simplifies diagnosis and treatment. This approach, based on modern understanding and extensive patient experience, significantly reduced PP relapses, demonstrating its clinical utility.

    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonology
    • Thoracic Surgery

    Context:

    • Pathologic pneumothorax (PP) presents complex etiological and pathogenetic challenges.
    • Existing classifications of pneumothorax lack clarity and practical application.
    • Effective management of PP requires a robust and user-friendly classification system.

    Purpose:

    • To critically evaluate current pneumothorax classifications.
    • To propose a novel, practical classification for pathologic pneumothorax.
    • To demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed classification in preventing PP relapses.

    Summary:

    • This study reviews existing pneumothorax classifications based on modern etiological and pathogenetic concepts.
    • A new classification for pathologic pneumothorax is introduced, derived from clinical experience with nearly 300 patients.
    • The proposed classification is designed for clarity, ease of understanding, and practical clinical use.

    Impact:

    • The novel classification system proved highly effective in preventing pathologic pneumothorax relapses.
    • Successful relapse prevention was achieved in all cases except those with contraindications for radical intervention (1.2%).
    • This classification offers a valuable tool for improving patient outcomes in the management of pathologic pneumothorax.
