چکیده
BACKGROUND Our study aims to determine the value of bronchial anastomosis using complete continuous suture. METHODS Six patients diagnosed with central lung carcinoma who were candidates for right-sided sleeve lobectomy and underwent sleeve resection of the right upper lobe by thoracoscopic surgical procedure. RESULTS The mean surgical time was 182 min (range, 110 to 260 min). The mean time of bronchial anastomosis was 49 min (range, 18 to 76 min). The mean bleeding was 110 mL (range, 50 to 260 mL). Median chest tube drainage was 305 mL (range, 200 to 600 mL). No perioperative deaths or major complications occurred. The postoperative bronchoscopy confirmed no stenosis. The mean follow-up time was 19.2 months (range, 7 to 34 months), and six patients were alive. CONCLUSIONS Bronchial anastomosis using complete continuous suture may be a suitable method in thoracoscopic sleeve lobectomy.

Initial experience with video-assisted thoracoscopic bronchoplasty.
OBJECTIVES Bronchial-origin involvement by endobronchial tumours or direct invasion by tumour or metastatic lymph nodes is a relative contraindication for video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) lobectomy. However, selected cases can be resected by VATS bronchoplasty. METHODS Between 2006 and 2009, 21 of 231 (9.1%) VATS lobectomy cases underwent VATS bronchoplasty. Cases with endobronchial involv...

Video-assisted thoracoscopic sleeve lobectomy via a single intercostal space three-port approach
INTRODUCTION Video-assisted thoracoscopic sleeve lobectomy is safe and feasible for lung cancer. We describe a case of video-assisted thoracoscopic sleeve lobectomy via a novel single intercostal space (SIC) three-port approach. CONCLUSIONS This case demonstrates that a SIC three-port thoracoscopic approach is effective in sleeve lobectomy, and possesses potential advantages in perioperative ...
