Subxiphoid approach for video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery: an update. [PDF]

J Thorac Dis, 2018
The transthoracic video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is considered as standard operation for various thoracic diseases. With the development of single-incision VATS, the thoracic surgery becomes less traumatic. However, chronic chest wound pain still an issue despite the less invasive approach.

Thoracoscopic Thymectomy Using a Subxiphoid Approach for Anterior Mediastinal Tumors. [PDF]

Ann Thorac Cardiovasc Surg, 2018
Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) techniques have been widely used for resection of mediastinal tumors. This study investigated the usefulness of the subxiphoid approach in thoracoscopic thymectomy.In all, 36 patients with anterior mediastinal tumor underwent thymectomy using the subxiphoid approach in two Japanese institutions.

Video-assisted thoracoscopic extended thymectomy using the subxiphoid approach. [PDF]

J Vis Surg, 2016
Minimally invasive thoracoscopic surgery has become an inevitable trend in the treatment of anterior mediastinal tumors and other thoracic diseases. Many surgical approaches may be used for video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) thymectomy. Some researchers have proven that that VATS thymectomy using the subxiphoid approach is technically safe and

The Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital uniportal subxiphoid approach for lung segmentectomies. [PDF]

J Vis Surg, 2016
Lung segmentectomy may be considered an oncologic equivalent treatment to lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) sized 20 mm or smaller. Subxiphoid uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) could further improve the surgical outcome reducing the surgical stress and completely avoiding the intercostal nerve injury.

Subxiphoid-subcostal versus transthoracic thoracoscopic thymectomy: A safe and feasible approachCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Techniques, 2022
Objective: Subxiphoid-subcostal thoracoscopic thymectomy (ST) is an emerging alternative to transthoracic thoracoscopic thymectomy. Potential advantages of ST are the avoidance of intercostal incisions and visualization of both phrenic nerves in their ...

Neurological outcomes of extended thymectomy for thymomatous myasthenia gravis: Subxiphoid vs. trans-sternal approaches

Frontiers in Surgery, 2022
BackgroundThe subxiphoid approach has been widely used recently. However, there is little data focusing on neurological outcomes in patients with thymomatous myasthenia gravis (MG) who underwent subxiphoid thoracoscopic thymectomy.
