  • Title: [The transmediastinal pleurotomy (author's transl)].
    Author: Toomes H, Vogt-Moykopf I.
    Journal: Thoraxchir Vask Chir; 1978 Aug; 26(4):297-9. PubMed ID: 694901.
    Abstract:
    A new surgical method is presented, the transmediastinal pleurotomy. With this technique it is possible to explore the opposite lung from a standard thoracotomy and to perform diagnostic or therapeutic resections in suitable cases. So far we have performed 20 transmediastinal pleurotomies without any complications.
