    Abstract:
    Isolated endobronchial tumors of the left main bronchus are quite rare. They are treated by surgical resection, preferably using lung-sparing techniques, when possible. These procedures are technically challenging and are usually performed through a standard thoracotomy.  This video tutorial shows a left main bronchus sleeve resection with distal lobar carina reconstruction, performed through a uniportal thoracoscopic approach, for a typical carcinoid tumor of the distal left main bronchus.
