This video demonstrates a proximal anastomosis, attaching a graft vessel to the aorta in a coronary artery bypass graft procedure. The authors break the anastomosis into five steps: preparation, creating...
In the case shown in this video, a midline sternotomy was used, which is ideal for multiple procedures. However, a right thoracotomy can be done as a minimally invasive approach...
This video takes the viewer through the initial steps of an aortic valve replacement, after the patient has been placed on cardiopulmonary bypass. Anatomical diagrams help to demonstrate the anatomical...
Microlobectomy aims to reduce postoperative pain and enhance a patient’s recovery. The key principles include: no intercostal utility incision; no intercostal incisions larger than 5 mm; adoption of 5 mm...
This video demonstrates a midline sternotomy. The authors detail the procedure in a step-by-step fashion, using diagrams and surgical video to illustrate key technical elements.
...The authors present a video demonstrating redo lung resection by VATS to show that previous surgery on the thorax does not contraindicate a minimally invasive re-intervention. The literature on this...
This is the case of 65-year-old male with a proven adenocarcinoma at the orifice of the apical segment of the right lower lobe. He underwent a robotic sleeve lobectomy with...
This is a video of a right upper lobectomy done through a subxiphoid port. The patient had an incidental finding of a mass on a chest x-ray, which CT-guided biopsy...
This video shows a robotic lingulectomy and lymphadenectomy in a 62-year-old non-smoker with a history of Dukes’ B colorectal adenocarcinoma. The surgeon begins by dissecting the inferior pulmonary ligament, where...
