Minimally Invasive
Lighting the Way: How ICG Enables Minimally Invasive Thoracic Surgeries in Resource-Limited Settings
October 9, 2025
This video demonstrates that Indocyanine Green fluorescence is a safe, affordable, and effective adjunct that expands access to minimally invasive surgery in resource-limited settings, enabling surgeons to deliver high-quality, equitable care.
October 7, 2025
This video demonstrates a novel technique combining video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and laparoscopy to repair a large diaphragmatic hernia.
October 2, 2025
This study analyzed data from the UK Mini Mitral trial, which compared recovery in patients undergoing either a sternotomy or a minimally invasive thoracoscopically-guided right minithoracotomy procedure for mitral valve repair, using wrist-worn triaxial accelerometers to track physical activity and sleep.
October 2, 2025
This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated whether three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction and virtual simulation improve outcomes in thoracoscopic segmentectomy. Ten studies (n=1,424; 772 3D vs 652 non-3D) were included.
September 29, 2025
This video shows the feasibility and reproducibility of endoscopic minimally invasive excision for left ventricular glomus tumors.
September 25, 2025
This video demonstrates a detailed technique to close the left atrial appendage through a right minithoracotomy.
September 24, 2025
This video illustrates a step-by-step technique for controlling vascular injuries during robotic thoracic surgery using a collagen-based hemostatic patch, preserving the minimally invasive approach and avoiding conversion to open surgery.
September 23, 2025
This video demonstrates that repeat right axillary thoracotomy is safe and feasible, even in redo settings, as it maintains cosmetic superiority and facilitates rapid functional recovery while achieving the anatomical repair as needed.
September 17, 2025
This video demonstrates how to use visual cues to compensate for the lack of tactile feedback during robotic pulmonary resections, enabling the accurate identification of lesions despite the absence of physical palpation.
