Background: Primary tracheal tumors are very rare, surgical treatment is the first choice, and extent of resection anastomosis determined by location, shape size pathological result tumor. With rapid development minimally invasive techniques instruments in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, but surgery usually considered to be most challenging complex thoracic which requires not only extraor...

Mediastinal neurogenic tumours generally arise as single benign lesions and their typical location is the costovertebral sulcus. In about 10% of cases mediastinal neurogenic tumours may extend to the spinal canal; occasionally they may extend to the cervical region and, more rarely, may be multiple or associated with other synchronous mediastinal lesions. The treatment of choice is surgical res...

During the past decade, the use of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has dramatically increased in children as well as adults. Although VATS can be performed while both lungs are being ventilated, single-lung ventilation (SLV) is desirable during VATS. In addition, anaesthesiologists are performing (and paediatric surgeons are requesting) SLV more frequently for open thoracotomies in ...

With continually growing interest in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) sleeve procedures in the international community, mastery of uniportal VATS sleeve resections is still a complex issue for surgeons. Several articles published recently have shown that VATS sleeve procedures can be performed safely (1-3). In this article the technique of a complex uniportal VATS sleeve resection is...

Bronchogenic cysts are relatively common mediastinal cysts. Here, we report removal of a rare paraoesophageal-type bronchogenic cyst by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in a 52-year-old male patient. The defect of the oesophageal wall was successfully reinforced with an intercostal muscle flap.
