Thoracoscopic Lobectomy in a Patient with Permanent Tracheostomy
نویسندگان
چکیده
One Lung Ventilation (OLV) is the preferred method of anesthesia in the vast majority of thoracic operations, especially thoracoscopic procedures. Although double lumen endotracheal tubes are usually used to conduct OLV during thoracic operations, in patients with permanent tracheostomy, because of short trachea, keeping these tubes safe in place is usually difficult. Thus, OLV in patients with permanent tracheostomy may be challenging or even impossible. Herein, we report a patient with permanent tracheostomy who underwent successful OLV and thoracoscopic lobectomy.

Limited resection and two-staged lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer with ground-glass opacity
BACKGROUND Lung tumors showing ground-glass opacities on high-resolution computed tomography indicate the presence of inflammation, atypical adenomatous hyperplasia, or localized bronchioloalveolar carcinoma. We adopted a two-staged video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy strategy involving completion lobectomy for localized bronchioloalveolar carcinoma with an invasive component according to po...
متن کاملSingle-port thoracoscopic lobectomy in a nonintubated patient: the least invasive procedure for major lung resection?
OBJECTIVES General anaesthesia with single-lung ventilation was always considered a condition for thoracoscopic major pulmonary resections. However, nonintubated thoracoscopic lobectomy has been reported recently by using conventional video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), epidural anaesthesia and vagus blockade. Here, we present a technique that reduces the surgical access trauma even mo...
متن کاملThoracoscopic Lobectomy
Increasingly, evidence suggests that thoracoscopic lobectomy can be performed with similar, if not reduced, morbidity and equivalent oncologic outcomes when compared with open lobectomy [1-5]. Despite the potential advantages of minimally invasive surgery, only 20% of pulmonary resections are currently completed in the United States using the thoracoscopic technique [6]. There are still several...
متن کاملFirst Case Report of Single Port Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Middle Lobectomy for the Treatment of Pulmonary Aspergilloma in a Pediatric Patient
We present the case of an 11-year-old girl with pulmonary aspergilloma secondary to a hematologic disease successfully treated with a single port video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy. This surgical procedure was not previously reported. We consider this approach to be a safe and appropriate procedure for lung resection, in children or adults requiring minimal intervention and early recovery.
متن کاملNonintubated thoracoscopic lobectomy for lung cancer.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the feasibility and safety of thoracoscopic lobectomy without endotracheal intubation. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA General anesthesia with single-lung ventilation is considered mandatory for thoracoscopic lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Nonintubated thoracoscopic lobectomy has not been reported previously. METHODS From August 2009 through June 2010, some ...
