Primary idiopathic chylopericardium managed by uniportal VATS. [PDF]
Chylopericardium is very rarely encountered in clinical practice. The common causes are post cardiac or thoracic surgery and neoplasms of the mediastinum. Most of the time, no cause is attributed and it is labelled as primary idiopathic chylopericardium. Conservative management is usually not successful and definitive surgery is required.

Multiport and uniportal VATS sleeve resections. [PDF]
The video-assisted approach has evolved to the gold standard for lung resection in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in recent years. Not only, because of the reduced morbidity and mortality of the minimally invasive approach, but even more since it has become evident that patients benefit from better overall survival (OS) when operated by

Uniportal VATS Coil-Assisted Resections for GGOs. [PDF]
Backgrounds. Although uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) theoretically allows the direct palpation of any zone of the lung through a small incision, sometimes it can be difficult to localize pure ground-glass opacities anyway. The aim of this study is to evaluate the usefulness and safety of preoperative computed tomography (CT)-guided ...
