The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1996
The revolution in video technology has led to the acceptance of thoracoscopy as an important tool in thoracic surgery.A review of all patients undergoing thoracoscopy at the University of Maryland between November 1991 and March 1995 was performed to identify the incidence of intraoperative and postoperative complications.

Thoracoscopy and Pneumonolysis
Diseases of the Chest, 19471. In a series of 234 thoracoscopies from 1943 to 1946, ninety-six pneumonolyses were performed. 2. Thoracoscopy has proved to be a safe, simple and informative procedure, singularly devoid of serious complications. 3. Sixty-nine per cent of the pneumonolysis operations resulted in a negative sputum or made possible the continuation of a ...

Clinical Techniques in Small Animal Practice, 1999
Thoracoscopy is a minimally invasive diagnostic technique that provides access to the thoracic cavity for evaluation of intrathoracic pathology without surgical intervention. Intrathoracic structures can be visualized better with thoracoscopy than with an open thoracotomy.

European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2010
Thoracoscopy has numerous applications for both diagnosis and treatment in thoracic trauma. It is excellent for the diagnosis of diaphragmatic injuries, mediastinal evaluation, and the assessment of persistent air-leak. It offers therapeutic intervention for diaphragmatic lacerations, thoracic bleeding in stable patients, evacuation of residual ...

Respiration, 2008
As opposed to ‘video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery’ which requires general anesthesia, double-lumen tracheal intubation and single lung ventilation, medical thoracoscopy (or ‘pleuroscopy’) is frequently performed in the respiratory endoscopy suite using local anesthesia.

Thoracoscopy in infants and children
Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 1998The recent advances in technology and technique in endoscopic surgery have dramatically altered the approach to intrathoracic lesions in the pediatric patient. Now most operations can be performed using a video-assisted approach, which has markedly decreased the associated morbidity for the patient.

AORN Journal, 1989
A renewed interest in thoracoscopy as a diagnostic and therapeutic procedure has emerged during this decade. With thoracoscopy, the surgeon can obtain a reliable diagnosis with minimal surgical intervention. In addition, the thoracoscope can provide a route for laser treatments, the delivery of sclerosis medications, or debridement of empyema in ...

Surgery, 1977
Poor results in the treatment of lung cancer have led to the development of several techniques designed to obtain tissue for diagnosis and to determine the feasibility of resection. Although mediastinoscopy has obtained great popularity, we have been dissatisfied with it because of the low yield of positive results and the attendant increases in length
