Uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery( VATS) is a thoracoscopic surgery in which a camera and multiple forceps are inserted into one wound and the operation is performed under complete monitoring. Since Diego Gonzalez-Rivas reported on lobectomy in 2011, various other procedures such as pneumonectomy, segmentectomy, sleeve, double sleeve, and carina reconstruction have been performed. Now, it is performed not only in Asia and Europe, but also in South America, the Middle East, and other parts of the world.

Introduction: Studies have compared the group-averages of liver stiffness measures (LSMs) from multiple rib spaces by vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE) to stage liver fibrosis. No previous study has assessed within-individual liver stiffness variation from two rib spaces in individuals with metabolic-dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).
Methods: We evaluated within-individual LSM variation according to body weight classification and its clinical implication.

Cryoneurolysis is a procedure that has been shown to be efficacious in managing pain in various settings. Multiple studies have demonstrated the benefit of cryoneurolysis; however, the literature on managing postherpetic neuralgia with cryoneurolysis is scarce. The current treatment options available include transdermal lidocaine patches, capsaicin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, nerve blocks, antidepressants, anticonvulsants, and opioids.

We present a case report on anesthesia management for a 16-year-old male with Fontan circulation undergoing pacemaker implantation, necessitating one-lung ventilation. The patient had a complex congenital heart condition and had previously undergone multiple surgeries, including a Fontan procedure. Due to his unique cardiovascular anatomy, a left thoracotomy was chosen for pacemaker implantation, which required one-lung ventilation for surgical approach and visualization.
