Video Mediastinoscopy Versus Standard Mediastinoscopy
2014Standard mediastinoscopy (SM) is a safe and established procedure for biopsy of masses and lymph nodes in the mediastinum. Technological advancements have led to video assisted mediastinoscopy (VAM). We evaluated the literature relating to the two techniques to determine if there is a clinical advantage to VAM over SM. Studies directly comparing VAM to

Extended Cervical Mediastinoscopy
Multimedia Manual of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2012Surgical exploration of subaortic and para-aortic lymph nodes has traditionally required the combination of standard cervical mediastinoscopy and left anterior mediastinotomy. Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery is another technique that allows the exploration of these nodal stations.

A pragmatic view of the usefulness of video-mediastinoscopy in the modern era
Journal of Visualized Surgery, 2018As a result of the introduction of new technologies, such as endoscopic (EUS) and endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) guided aspiration, surgeons are moving away from routine mediastinoscopy prior to lung cancer resection.

Mediastinoscopy in a Community Hospital
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1967Mediastinoscopy is being used as a diagnostic tool with increasing frequency in this country. In the absence of peripheral nodes, it is a more rewarding procedure than scalene node biopsy in the diagnosis of sarcoidosis. Mediastinoscopy is a better method of detecting lymphatic extension of bronchogenic carcinoma than scalene node biopsy.

Complications of mediastinoscopy
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1989AbstractFrom 1968 to 1987, mediastinoscopy was performed on 2021 consecutive patients. The procedure was carried out in 35.7 per cent on patients with a pulmonary infiltrate and in 28.8 per cent with bronchogenic carcinoma. Mediastinoscopy was positive in 54 per cent of the cases. The total number of complications was 2.3 per cent (47/2021). There were

ORL, 1989
The author reports 18 cases with repeated mediastinoscopy. The surgical procedure was performed twice on 16 patients and three times on 2 patients. Mediastinal shadow was the indication in 6 patients and bronchogenic carcinoma in 3 patients. Average time lag between the procedures was 35 months.

Mediastinoscopy in Experimental Histoplasmosis
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1967MEDIASTINOSCOPY as it is used today was first described by Carlens in 1959.1He reported a series of 100 cases of proven or suspected bronchogenic carcinoma in which mediastinoscopy was used primarily to evaluate pulmonary resectability. Palva in 1964 described the evolution and development of the technique and discussed an extensive application of ...

A Comparative Analysis of Video-Assisted Mediastinoscopy and Conventional Mediastinoscopy
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2011The objective of this study was to compare outcomes of video-assisted mediastinoscopic lymph node biopsy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with outcomes of conventional mediastinoscopic lymph node biopsy in this same patient population.All mediastinoscopies at one medical center from January 2008 to December 2009 were analyzed ...
