Role of subxiphoid uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in pulmonary metastasectomy
Optimal management for patients with pulmonary metastasis is still debated. True survival benefit from widely practiced pulmonary metastasectomy (PM) is yet to be proved from high-quality randomized controlled trials.

Subxiphoid approach for robotic single-site-assisted thymectomy [PDF]
Abstract OBJECTIVES We previously reported a transthoracic approach using the da Vinci Single-Site™ platform. This study describes the outcomes of robotic single-site thymectomy via a subxiphoid approach based on our previous experiences.

Selective Use of Pericardial Window and Drainage as Sole Treatment for Hemopericardium from Penetrating Chest Trauma [PDF]
Background Penetrating cardiac injuries (PCIs) are highly lethal, and a sternotomy is considered mandatory for suspected PCI. Recent literature suggests pericardial window (PCW) may be sufficient for superficial cardiac injuries to drain hemopericardium

Subxiphoid approach for thoracoscopic thymectomy [PDF]
Avoiding sternotomy, cumulative experience has demonstrated the efficacy and safety of minimally invasive thoracoscopic thymectomy. Previous reports describing the transcervical, left or right thoracic approach, although demonstrating promising results, involve some compromise of the surgical exposure.
