    Abstract:
    We report a case of congenital bronchial atresia resected by the uniportal thoracoscopic approach. A man in his 20s with congenital bronchial atresia diagnosed at 16 years of age visited our hospital with gradually worsening shortness of breath. Chest computed tomography revealed a localized emphysematous area that progressively increased in size, in the left upper lobe and the absence of a left upper division bronchus with mucoid impaction. Surgical treatment was deemed necessary in view of dyspnea and progressively worsening emphysema, and the resection of left upper division was performed by uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.
