What Is a Thoracic Trocar?
Trocars are small pieces of medical equipment that consist of an awl or point at one end, a hollow tube in the center, and a seal at the top. They’re used for guiding medical instruments into the body with minimal risks of tissue damage, ideal for diagnosing issues with internal organs, and there are various types of trocars, including thoracic trocars.
As the name implies, thoracic trocars are trocars that are designed to provide access to the thoracic cavity in the chest. They have various functions, such as aiding with the drainage of fluid out of the chest after thoracic surgery, as well as during operations and surgery in the thoracic area.
Thoracic trocars tend to be quite flexible in order to allow for different instruments to pass through them more easily, with relatively blunt, blade-less designs in order to reduce the risk of damage to the body upon entry.

How Does a Thoracic Trocar Work?
Thoracic trocars are primarily used in various kinds of thoracic surgery to treat the heart, lungs, or other structures within the chest. This process can take various forms, but when thoracic catheters are involved, there are usually small incisions made to the skin, with the aid of anesthesia to numb the area and reduce the pain for the patient.
Once the incisions have been made, the thoracic trocars can be guided into position. And once they are in place, the thoracic trocars may be used to either drain fluid out of the chest or guide instruments into the chest for surgical reasons.
Thoracic Trocar Sizes
Like other kinds of trocars, there are various different sizes of thoracic trocars, with some being much narrower and smaller overall than others. In general, thoracic trocars are only a few centimeters in length and have very narrow diameters ranging from 5 to 15mm.
Thoracic Trocar Types
Thoracic trocars are a very specific variety of trocar, and most of them are very similar in terms of their general shape and design. But they may be divided further into additional types. There are many bladeless thoracic trocars, for example, which have blade-free designs for safety purposes, as well as flexible thoracic trocars, which stand out due to their high degrees of flexibility.
Thoracic Trocar Uses
There are several potential uses of thoracic trocars. They are most commonly used in thoracic operations, either to diagnose problems inside the chest or to treat them. The thoracic trocars are often very useful for surgeons in terms of getting implements and instruments into the body without the need for large incisions. They may also be used for drainage purposes.
