Answer 3

A surgical opening of the chest is called a thoracotomy, when a tube or some other structure is placed in the incision site to keep the hole open, that is a throacostomy.
Thoracotomy (thora = thorax [chest] + tom = cut + y = procedure) is the surgical incision (cutting) of the chest. There are three approaches: [1] medial sternotomy used in open heart surgery, [2] posterolateral thoracotomy used in lung surgery, and [3] anterolateral thoracotomy for open chest massage in a traumatic cardiac arrest.

Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS), which is less invasive, has been a successful alternative in many cases.

Answer 4

Thoracostomy (thoraco = thorax [chest] + os = mouth + tom = cut + y = procedure) is a procedure in which a flexible plastic chest tube is inserted through the chest wall to remove air, fluid or pus from the intrathoracic space.

A thoracostomy would be done for a pneumothorax (collapsed lung) or pleural effusion (accumulation of a fluid [blood, serous, pus]). Chest tubes are also a routine procedure in any open-chest surgery.

Answer 5

Developing an artificial opening through the abdominal wall is exteriorizing or exteriorization.
