Video-assisted thoracic surgery major pulmonary resection requiring control of the main pulmonary artery.
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility and safety of thoracoscopic major pulmonary resection requiring the cross-clamping of the main pulmonary artery (PA), in comparison to an open thoracotomy performed in patients with lung cancer. A retrospective database of 27 consecutive lung cancer patients, who underwent either video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) (n=13) or open thorac...
متن کاملVideo-Assisted Thoracic Surgery Major Pulmonary Resections
Video-Assisted Thoracic major pulmonary resections (VMPR) such as lobectomy, pneumonectomy and segmentectomy are rarely performed procedures, but steadily growing in popularity. Less than 4% of all lobectomies performed in the United Kingdom (UK)1 and less than 5% in the United States [1] and Europe [2] are performed this way. The surgeon’s knack, personal preference, and convictions about what...
متن کاملVideo-assisted thoracoscopic resection for intralobar pulmonary sequestration: single modality treatment with video-assisted thoracic surgery.
Video-assisted thoracoscopic treatment of intralobar pulmonary sequestration in an obese (120 kg, body mass index 42) young man is described. Two aberrant arteries originating from the descending thoracic aorta were transected with a vascular stapler, and a left lower lobectomy was successfully performed thoracoscopically. Three-dimensional chest computed tomography was used to identify the abe...
متن کاملInitial experience of video-assisted thoracic surgery lobectomy with partial removal of the pulmonary artery.
A lobectomy with a resection of the pulmonary artery is less invasive than a pneumonectomy. However, it seems to be extremely difficult to perform this technique using video-assisted thoracic surgery with technical limitations because this technique is associated with an increased operative risk even in an open thoracotomy. Between April 2002 and December 2006, a curative video-assisted thoraci...
متن کاملFeasibility of 3-dimensional video-assisted thoracic surgery (3D-VATS) for pulmonary resection
BACKGROUND Two-dimensional video-assisted thoracic surgery (2D-VATS) has gained its position in daily practise. Although very useful, its two-dimensional view has its drawbacks when performing pulmonary resections. We report our first experience with 3-dimensional video-assisted surgery (3D-VATS). Advantages and differences with 2D-VATS and robotic surgery (RS) are discussed. METHODS To evalu...
