Thoracoscopic 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 کاملLocalized benign pleural mesothelioma: a case report.
Primary neoplasms of the pleura are rare tumors and the majority are generally mesotheliomas. Mesotheliomas are either localized and mostly benign, or diffuse and uniformly malignant neoplasms. Localised benign pulmonary mesothelioma (solitary fibrous tumor of the pleura) are originally thought to be a variant of diffuse pleural mesothelioma because they consists of a spindle cell stroma associ...
متن کاملRobotic versus thoracoscopic lung resection
BACKGROUND Robotic video-assisted surgery (RVATS) has been reported to be equally effective to video-assisted surgery (VATS) in lung resection (pneumonectomy, lobectomy, and segmentectomy). Operation time, mortality, drainage duration, and length of hospitalization of patients undergoing either RVATS or VATS are compared in this meta-analysis. METHODS A systematic research for articles meetin...
متن کاملVideo-assisted thoracoscopic extrapleural pneumonectomy for malignant pleural mesothelioma.
Ann Cardiothorac Surg 2012;1(4):533 www.annalscts.com This video demonstration represents our first attempt at video-assisted thoracoscopic extrapleural pneumonectomy (EPP) for a 51-year-old patient with right-sided malignant pleural mesothelioma following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (Video 1). While originating as an initial inspection for a possible radical decortication, it was apparent that th...
متن کاملMulticystic Benign Mesothelioma Complicating Pregnancy
Multicystic benign mesothelioma (MBM) is a rare peritoneal pathology typically affecting women in reproductive age. Though MBM is considered benign, these lesions are prone to recurrence and their growth could be modulated by the presence of oestrogen receptors. Acute presentation of MBM is still very rare in pregnancy and management options are not established. We describe a case of MBM presen...
