Chemical pleurodesis is the instillation of either sterile talc or erythromycin to produce irritation or inflammation of the pleura. With bedside pleurodesis or tube thoracostomy pleurodesis, sterile talc is mixed with lidocaine and sterile water to create a talc slurry.
The aim of the current study was to compare mechanical (brushing the pleural surface) with chemical (instillation of minocycline) methods of pleurodesis in the management of RPSP.
