Pericardial Decompression for Acute Traumatic Cardiac Tamponade-Pearls and Clamshells. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Acute traumatic cardiac tamponade is a time‐critical—but potentially reversible—cause of circulatory collapse. The surgical, operative, nursing and anaesthesiology staff most capable and best trained to perform the procedure are often not immediately available, requiring emergency medical staff to perform this life‐saving intervention.

Subxiphoid uniportal lobectomy [PDF]
Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) surgery has seen an evolution from multiple ports to uniportal and finally subxiphoid uniportal recently. In traditional VATS surgery, the instruments and the thoracoscope enter the thoracic cavity through two to four operating ports on the lateral chest wall, which can cause chronic pain and chest wall numbness ...

Effect Evaluation of Subxiphoid and Intercostal Thymectomy: A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review
BackgroundIt still remains unclear whether subxiphoid video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (SVATS) thymectomy is safe and reasonable. This meta-analysis aims at assessing the effectiveness and safety of SVATS for thymoma in comparison with that of ...

Subxiphoid mediastinal lymphadenectomy [PDF]
Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has experience an exponential growth in lung anatomic resections. Since its beginnings in early 90s with the conventional multiport VATS to the more recent uniportal approach, a continuous search for a less invasive procedure has fueled the development of minimally invasive thoracic surgery.

Intrathymic growing bronchogenic cyst mimicking thymoma: A case report
Intrathymic bronchogenic cysts are extremely rare lesions, and the differential diagnosis with a banal thymic cyst or a solid tumor can be problematic. Thymic carcinomas arising within thymic cysts have also been reported.

Robotic subxiphoid-optical thymectomy
Abstract Robot-assisted thymectomy through a subxiphoid scopic approach can provide a good surgical view, similar to that of median sternotomy. We originally used the subxiphoid port only for the robotic scope to avoid instrument collision with the assistant device.

Subxiphoid VATS Thymectomy After Cardiac Surgery
Although the traditional (median sternotomy) approach has been set as the standard for thymectomy due to its better visualization and control of the anatomical structures, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) thymectomy can offer a less invasive ...

Rectus Sheath Block for Pain Management in Subxiphoid Single-Incision Thoracoscopic Surgery
Subxiphoid video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) procedures have been shown to cause less postoperative pain compared to that caused by intercostal VATS. New approaches have been investigated to prevent surgery or chest tube pain.
