A Rare Case of Intramediastinal Humeral Head Fracture Dislocation Through the Thoracic Inlet
ABSTRACT Intramediastinal fracture dislocation of the humeral head due to a blunt trauma is very rare. It may be accompanied by local and systemic injuries associated with high‐energy trauma. Only one case has been reported in the literature; therefore, an appropriate treatment modality remains unclear. We present a case of a 71‐year‐old woman involved

Non‐Specific Chest Pain—Possibility of Finding Suggestive of Hidden Pleural Metastasis
We present a patient with persistent, non‐specific chest pain, with a lung mass without obvious pleural involvement, who was eventually diagnosed with pleural metastasis. This case highlights the importance of considering active diagnostic procedures even with no specific imaging findings or when the association of pain with trauma could not be ...

Robotic versus uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery for lung cancer [PDF]
During the last two decades minimally invasive surgery for early stage lung cancer replaced open approaches with advantages for patients (less pain, less complications, shorter hospital stay). A prospective randomized controlled trial by Bendixen et al . demonstrated significantly less pain and better quality of life (1).

This study combined subjective and objective data to analyze the differences in early postoperative functional recovery (within 4 weeks) between triportal RATS segmentectomy and uniportal VATS segmentectomy. Our findings suggest that RATS has potential advantages in early postoperative functional recovery and provides a viable alternative for surgical ...

Uniportal and single-incision video-assisted thoracic surgery: the state of the art [PDF]
Over the past decade, uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) has evolved dramatically into a sophisticated technique capable of performing some of the most complex thoracic procedures. The idea of operating through fewer surgical incisions and, therefore, with potentially better cosmesis, less postoperative pain and paraesthesia, has led to ...
