Total port-access lobectomy via a subcostal trans-diaphragmatic approach for lung cancer.

Video-assisted thoracic surgery has been recognized as an acceptable technique for the treatment of early-stage lung cancer, with the potential advantage of lower postoperative pain than that experienced after open thoracotomy. However, the procedure cannot completely alleviate postoperative pain and paraesthesia and causes some degree of intercostal nerve damage. To minimize postoperative pain...

A modified method using a two-port approach for accessing the hilar vasculature without transferring an endostapler from camera port to utility port during thoracoscopic right upper lobectomy.

For thoracoscopic upper lobectomies, most cutting endostaplers must be inserted through the camera port when using a two-port approach. Access to the hilar vasculature through only the utility port remains a challenge. In this study, we describe a procedure to access the hilar vasculature without transferring the endostapler site during a thoracoscopic right upper lobectomy. A 2.5-cm utility an...

Video-assisted thoracoscopic resection of intralobar pulmonary sequestration in adults

Introduction: Intralobar pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital abnormality that is usually diagnosed in childhood. When diagnosed in adults, patients are usually symptomatic and undergo open thoracotomy and lobectomy. However, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VAts) has become a viable alternative. case series: We present three cases in which adults underwent VAts lobectomy. the rese...

Efficacy of Single-Port Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery Lobectomy Compared with Triple-Port VATS by Propensity Score Matching

Background In recent years, single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for lobectomy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients has become increasingly common. The objective of this study was to compare the feasibility and safety of single-port and triple-port VATS lobectomy. Methods A total of 73 patients with NSCLC who underwent VATS lobectomy from December 2011 to August 2...
