A comparative study of thoracoscopic vs open removal of benign neurogenic mediastinal tumors.
STUDY OBJECTIVE To assess the relative benefit of thoracoscopy vs open thoracotomy in the removal of benign neurogenic, mediastinal tumors (BNMTs). DESIGN Retrospective comparative study of thoracoscopy and open thoracotomy. SETTING Patients underwent surgery at the thoracic surgical services of two institutions from 1988 to 1994. Patients who underwent thoracoscopy were operated on more re...
متن کاملThoracoscopic resection of bulky intrathoracic benign lesions.
BACKGROUND Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) is used for the diagnosis and treatment of some mediastinal lesions. However, large-size tumours are usually approached by thoracotomy or sternotomy. We report our experience of a full thoracoscopic approach for bulky intrathoracic lesions. METHODS From November 2002 to March 2007, 14 patients with a bulky intrathoracic mass were referred for ...
متن کاملConstruct Validation: Simulation of Thoracoscopic Intrathoracic Anastomosis
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES We sought to develop a simulation model that accurately replicates the challenges of the thoracoscopic intrathoracic anastomosis. This model is intended to serve as a teaching tool during the introduction to, and development of, the skills required to perform a thoracoscopic intrathoracic anastomosis during an Ivor Lewis minimally invasive esophagectomy. METHODS The ...
متن کاملThoracoscopic esophagectomy for intrathoracic esophageal cancer.
Thoracoscopic approaches for esophageal cancer are still disparate. Complete scopic technique is feasible for esophagectomy. Mini-thoracotomy is effective for excellent exposure of the mediastinum for lymph node dissection. The magnifying effect of a video, by keeping the camera in close proximity to the dissection is essential to perform the same quality of dissection as open surgery. The bene...
متن کاملPrimary intrathoracic malignant neurogenic tumor: report of three cases and comparison with benign neurogenic tumors resected at our institution
We present three patients with intrathoracic malignant neurogenic tumor. Two lesions showed no sign of invasion into adjacent structures, while the third lesion extended to the intraspinal canal with vertebral involvement. Although all three lesions were completely excised, each patient relapsed within 1 year of the initial treatment. One patient with local recurrence underwent radiation therap...
