Low cervical incision combined with video-assisted thoracoscopy for resection of a goiter extending to the posterior mediastinum: A case report and literature review

open access: yesLaparoscopic, Endoscopic and Robotic Surgery, 2023
Approximately 25% of goiters extend to the substernal area, and most of them can be removed through a cervical incision. Goiters that extend into the posterior mediastinum are very rare, and resection usually requires thoracotomy.

Three‐year extraction experience of a novel substernal extravascular defibrillation lead in sheep

open access: yesPacing and clinical electrophysiology : PACE, 2022
The extravascular implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (EV ICD) with lead implantation in the substernal space may provide an alternative to transvenous and subcutaneous systems. This is the first‐reported chronic extraction experience for EV ICD leads.
