Video-assisted thoracoscopic sleeve lobectomy via a single intercostal space three-port approach

چکیده
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 pain management and rehabilitation.

Single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic right upper lobectomy using a flexible videoscope.
Single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has recently been proposed as an innovative minimally invasive alternative to the standard three-port VATS for lobectomies, most of which are performed using a conventional rigid thoracoscope. Here, we report a single-port VATS approach for right upper lobectomy and systematic lymph node dissection using a flexible endoscope. A 61-year-old...
متن کاملTwo-port approach for fully thoracoscopic right upper lobe sleeve lobectomy
This report describes a case report of a minimally invasive technique for VATS right upper sleeve lobectomy with a two-port approach. To our knowledge it is the first report of this kind. A 50-year-old man with a pulmonary nodule occluding the orifice of the right upper lobe bronchus was referred to our department. Dissection, stapling the right upper lobe pulmonary vessels and anastomosis betw...

OBJECTIVES General anaesthesia with single-lung ventilation was always considered a condition for thoracoscopic major pulmonary resections. However, nonintubated thoracoscopic lobectomy has been reported recently by using conventional video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), epidural anaesthesia and vagus blockade. Here, we present a technique that reduces the surgical access trauma even mo...
متن کاملTotal port-access lobectomy via a subcostal trans-diaphragmatic approach for lung cancer.
Video-assisted thoracic surgery has been recognized as an acceptable technique for the treatment of early-stage lung cancer, with the potential advantage of lower postoperative pain than that experienced after open thoracotomy. However, the procedure cannot completely alleviate postoperative pain and paraesthesia and causes some degree of intercostal nerve damage. To minimize postoperative pain...

BACKGROUND This study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) lobectomy with two incisions. METHODS A total of 73 patients (male 47, female 26; mean age 61.2 ± 12.00 years old) who underwent major pulmonary resection, through VATS, using two incisions were included in this study. The thoracoscopy port was placed at the 7th or the 8th intercostal space ...
