We present an unusual case of a 72-year-old patient with a concurrent aortic arch pseudoaneurysm and right diaphragmatic hernia, who was successfully treated using an aortic endovascular stent and diaphragmatic repair via uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.

Department of Thoracic Surgery, Ningbo No.2 Hospital, 41 Xibei Road, Ningbo, 315010, P. R. China.

Pulmonary hamartomas are common. However, extrapulmonary hamartomas on the Visceral Pleura are very rare. We treated a patient with a pulmonary nodule at the left lower lobe by uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic wedge resection, which showed a yellow nodule located on the visceral pleura.

Background: Carinal resection and reconstruction are complex surgical procedures often necessitated by tumors or other pathologies involving the tracheobronchial junction. Traditional approaches to these surgeries are highly invasive. The advent of uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) along with the integration of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) offer potential advantages in reducing surgical trauma and improving outcomes.

Background: Lung cancer remains a leading cause of mortality worldwide, with surgery being a primary treatment option for early-stage cases. Minimally invasive surgery has gained attention due to its potential benefits. Uniportal robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) is emerging as a viable option for treating lung cancer patients.

Background: Ultrasound-guided intercostal nerve block (UINB) and thoracoscopic-guided intercostal nerve block (TINB) are often used for analgesia after thoracic surgery. Herein, we compared the application of TINB and UINB for analgesia after uniportal video-assisted lobectomy.

Methods: Sixty patients were randomly allocated into two groups: UINB and TINB.

Background: Complex segmentectomy for uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) remains controversial due to procedural complexity and the risk of increased complications, unlike multiportal VATS. Demonstrating the perioperative results and proficiency of individual surgeon is believed to influence future dissemination for uniportal VATS. In this study, we aimed to compare the perioperative outcomes and learning curves of complex versus simple segmentectomy for uniportal VATS.
