  • Title: Two-incision approach for video-assisted thoracoscopic sleeve lobectomy.
    Author: Peña E, Blanco M, Ovalle JP.
    Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2014 Mar; 22(3):371-3. PubMed ID: 24585928.
    Abstract:
    The video-assisted thoracoscopic approach for bronchoplasty procedures is not standardized. Although 3 to 4 incisions are usually made, with adequate surgical technique, the operation can be successfully carried out using only 2 incisions. We describe the technique of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for a right upper lobe sleeve lobectomy for a carcinoid tumor in the right upper bronchus, using only 2 ports.
