Video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy.
Access from the right chest is generally easier. In this case however, the thymoma was predominantly left-sided and therefore a left-sided approach was preferred. The anesthetist places a double lumen tube to allow isolation of the required lung. The patient is placed with the chest elevated to an angle of around 30 degrees.

A 67-year old man presented with cough and bloody sputum. Chest computed tomography showed an anterior mediastinal mass with a right hilar...
متن کاملThymectomy via open surgery or robotic video assisted thoracic surgery
BACKGROUND Robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RVATS) is a relatively new technique applied for thymectomies. Only few studies directly compare RVATS to the mainstay therapy, open surgery (sternotomy). METHODS A systematic search of the literature was performed in October 2016. The meta-analysis includes studies comparing robotassisted and open thymectomy regarding operation time, leng...

This suggests that data of the control group were not compared with the data of the study groups, but data of different time points were compared within the group. It is therefore of interest that the number of five patients is too low, and with nonparametric data it is hard to dem¬ onstrate any statistically significant change. Additionally,...
