Video-assisted thoracoscopic resection for intralobar pulmonary sequestration: single modality treatment with video-assisted thoracic surgery.
Video-assisted thoracoscopic treatment of intralobar pulmonary sequestration in an obese (120 kg, body mass index 42) young man is described. Two aberrant arteries originating from the descending thoracic aorta were transected with a vascular stapler, and a left lower lobectomy was successfully performed thoracoscopically. Three-dimensional chest computed tomography was used to identify the abe...
متن کاملSimultaneous stapling of pulmonary vein and bronchus in video-assisted thoracic surgery lobectomy.
We present the case of a 66-year-old female who had undergone pulmonary wedge resection for diagnosis and followed by a radical lobectomy for the treatment of the primary lung cancer. We performed a left upper lobectomy through Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS), we successfully adapted simultaneous stapling technique to division of both pulmonary vein and lobar bronchus which were densely ...
متن کاملA video-assisted thoracic surgical lobectomy for a lung tumour with a rare anomalous pulmonary artery.
A detailed knowledge of anomalies of the anatomical course of the pulmonary vessels is extremely important for video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS). Inadvertent vascular ligation and dissection are catastrophic for patients undergoing lobectomy. We describe a case with a rare anomaly of the left pulmonary artery and highlight the importance of identifying the courses of pulmonary vessels for ...
متن کاملLong-term survival in video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy vs open lobectomy in lung-cancer patients: a meta-analysis.
Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) lobectomy is an appealing alternative to open lobectomy via thoracotomy for non-small-cell lung cancer. However, there is no clear consensus in regard to the superior approach for long-term outcomes. The data are limited to small series, which precludes further clarification. Meta-analysis of these studies was performed in order to obtain a more objective ...
متن کاملThe utility of BiClamp(®) for intraoperative air leakage control in video-assisted thoracic surgery for pulmonary lobectomy.
We describe a simple technique of controlling air leakage from the lung parenchyma using BiClamp(®). The device creates appropriate protein coagulation at an air leakage point of the lung parenchyma. The leakage point and adjacent area are grasped with BiClamp(®) forceps and coagulated without tissue carbonization. After the procedure, no air leakage was recognized under airway pressure test of...
متن کاملInitial experience of video-assisted thoracic surgery lobectomy with partial removal of the pulmonary artery.
A lobectomy with a resection of the pulmonary artery is less invasive than a pneumonectomy. However, it seems to be extremely difficult to perform this technique using video-assisted thoracic surgery with technical limitations because this technique is associated with an increased operative risk even in an open thoracotomy. Between April 2002 and December 2006, a curative video-assisted thoraci...
