A propensity score-matched comparison of the efficacies of OK-432 and talc slurry for pleurodesis for malignant pleural effusion induced by lung adenocarcinoma
Abstract
The choice of an optimal sclerosant for pleurodesis for malignant pleural effusion remains controversial. This retrospective clinical study compared the efficacy and safety of two sclerosants; talc slurry (talc-s) and OK-432.We compared the characteristics, 30/90-day success rates, and adverse events in patients with lung adenocarcinoma who underwent pleurodesis by using either OK-432 or talc-s. Propensity score matching was used to compare the...
